Privacy and Safety Center

How to keep my account safe?

Here are some things you can do to help keep your account safe:

  • Pick a strong password. Use a combination of at least six numbers, letters and punctuation marks (like ! and &). It should be different from other passwords you use elsewhere on the internet.
  • Change your password regularly, especially if you see a message from Instagram asking you to do so. During automated security checks, NG Rewards sometimes recovers login information that was stolen from other sites. If NG Rewards detects that your password may have been stolen, changing your password on NG Rewards and other sites helps to keep your account secure and prevent you from being hacked in the future.
  • Never give your password to someone you don’t know and trust.
  • Make sure your email account is secure. Anyone who can read your email can probably also access your Instagram account. Change the passwords for all of your email accounts and make sure that no two are the same.
  • Log out of NG Rewards when you use a computer or phone you share with other people.
  • Think before you authorize any third-party app.

  • A photo of yourself holding a paper with a handwritten code we’ve provided you.
  • The email address or phone number you signed up with and the type of device you used at the time of sign up (example: iPhone, Android, iPad, other).

Once you provide information to help us verify your identity, we’ll send you specific instructions to recover your account at the secure email address you provided.
