Read the guideThe 60-second rule.
If you would not read the detail aloud in a crowded room, cover it before the screenshot leaves your device. Three questions make the decision easier:
Could this identify a person?
Name, photo, handle, email, phone, address, ID number.
Could this cost money?
Card number, expiry, CVV, bank details, invoice number.
Could this unlock an account?
Order number, date of birth, tax ID, security answer.
