In the unfortunate case when you’re separated from your Android device against your will - either because you lost it, or it was stolen - you’re not just losing a product that may (or may not) be expensive. You’re also being kept away from all the personal data on it: photos, messages, contacts, details about your accounts, and so on.
Thankfully, Google can help you protect the data stored on your Android smartphone or tablet, using a service / feature called Android Device Manager, which is available since last year.
You first have to make sure Android Device Manager is enabled. To do that, access the Settings menu on your device, then the Security menu. Once you’re there, scroll down to find the Device administrators tab, tap on it, and check the Android Device Manager box on the right, if it’s not already checked. Here are some screenshots of the steps you need to take (your device’s menus may appear different, but you’ll get the point anyway):
