At UNiDAYS, your safety online is top priority. We make sure we have powerful security measures and the highest respect for your data privacy, so you can trust us with your information.

One of these measures is making sure the password you choose when signing up is as strong as possible. First, we run a check on the password you’ve entered to make sure it hasn’t previously been published publicly on the internet or been included in any past data breaches. If we find it has, you’ll see a prompt to choose a different, more secure password because your first choice isn’t safe to use.

If this is the case for a password you use for lots of things, we suggest you change it on other sites, too. If you ever want to check if your passwords are still secret, this site is really helpful: Haveibeenpwned.com

There are lots of other things you can do too to make sure your online accounts are super secure.

Passwords

The good ones are great and the bad ones can be, well, pretty useless. It’s easier than you think to make your passwords Hulk-like in strength:

- Don’t share your passwords with people and don’t write them down

- Use password managers or encryption services to keep them extra secure. They’re easy to use and there’s loads available to choose from

- Use different passwords for different sites. Choosing a longer password, such as four random words or a sentence is generally stronger than a shorter password that replaces letters with special characters (and easier to remember!)

- Update your passwords regularly

Test how secure your login details are

Haveibeenpwned.com is a useful site where you can search for your email addresses and passwords to see if they have been exposed and published online anywhere. The results can indicate which login details you need to update to stay secure. Remember, if you use the same password for pretty much everything, your risk of being hacked on multiple accounts is much higher.

Keep your software updated

Outdated software can make you vulnerable, so making sure things like operating systems, apps and browsers are up to date means they’ll have the strongest possible security measures.

Wise up to phishing

Phishing scams are getting smarter all the time, but there are things to look out for: something in that email sounding a bit… Off? Don’t recognise the sender? Is someone asking for your personal information? Send it straight to trash.

Protect your devices

If you’re anything like us, your phone will usually be glued to your palm. But, in case it does get lost or stolen, set up remote wiping capabilities and a strong PIN with facial or fingerprint recognition turned on.

Be careful what you share online

You didn’t go all the way to Bali not to share it on Insta, but just watch what personal details you could accidentally give away, like your location, address, birthday or the name of your first pet (hello, security questions!) These could be used by someone impersonating you to falsely verify your identity.

If you're having difficulty verifying your student status, please see the verification support section for more help.

Students must be over the age of 16 to qualify for a UNiDAYS account.

What are my log in details?I can't remember which email address I use to log in with, what do I do?How do I change my password?Why is my account saying it’s already in use?

Your log in details will be either your personal or institutional email address. The password will be the original password, when registering your account.

If you cannot remember your password, then you can request a new password on the login page of the UNiDAYS site, or contact our support team.

The best way to find out which email address you registered with is to try using your various email addresses to reset your password as that will tell you if the email address is recognised.

If none of your email addresses are recognised it means you haven’t registered, so you’re free to create a new account.

Try the reset password feature.

If you've tried that but didn’t receive our email check your spam folder and make sure emails from help@myunidays.com aren't being blocked.

If you're still having trouble please contact us

If you are getting a message saying your email is already in use, please try logging in with that email address, rather than re-registering.

You may need to reset yourself a new password.

If this does not resolve your issue then please contact us.
