Signing out of My Account

To sign out of my account click the link which says 'Sign out'.

If you’re using a larger screen device (such as a desktop or laptop computer), the sign out link appears next to your name in the bar at the top of the web page, sometimes known as the ‘header’.

Alternatively, if you’re using a smaller screen (such as a table or a mobile phone), the sign out appears in the ‘hamburger menu’ in the top left of the screen.
