I was connected to the uni’s wifi, which I access with my institutional account, on my personal laptop. If using the app Notion - accessed with my personal gmail account - and writing on it, what can they see? do they have access to what I’m writing? Do they just see I’m using it?
Thank you!
A few question if you have the time:
the laptop is mine. I bought it and it had nothing to do with uni, but during covid they gave us free Microsoft Office access through our univeristy’s email, and on this laptop I have logged to two accounts: my personal one, which is the first one that appears on start > settings > account. If I scroll down to School and work accounts, I have a microsoft account with my univeristy email and password. So I have added that as a microsoft account. And they are both connected. I don’t know how to check what they have access to etc.
about notion: How do I know how I’m navigating it (https etc)? Does it depend on the app (I was on the app installed on my laptop) or what? Is there a way to check now? I sent Notion Support an email but don’t know if they can help or if it depends on me
Notion syncs using https. It’s safe to say that as long as you haven’t specifically installed weird apps (notion is not a weird app) nothing going on on your PC is visible to anyone else.
This is of course, not true of enterprise and school devices, which usually have very powerful antivirus solutions installed that allow the work/school to see whatever you do (though they mostly don’t care, as long as you aren’t causing trouble on the network or doing things that might get them sued)

also let’s assume I have given them access to my device in some way. If I format my laptop, would it be safe? Worried about my phone too cause I’m getting paranoid now haha
