• Why should I select "remember my device?"

We can remember up to 10 of your personal devices, such as phones, tablets, etc. For your protection, we suggest remembering only personal, not public, devices.
• Why do I need a verification code to sign in?

  If we don't recognize the device you're using, we need to confirm your identity before you can access your account. Sometimes we don't recognize your device because:

  • This is the first time you've logged into your account
  • You're using a new computer or one you haven't used before 
  • You switched to a new internet browser (for instance, switching from Internet Explorer to Chrome)
  • You changed your internet browser settings or are using a private browsing mode
  • You deleted your cookies or cleared your cache
  • You modified your device, its operating system, or its software settings 
  • Your internet provider changed its system settings 
  • Your IP address may have changed
  • We can only remember up to 10 device and location combinations
