How can I prevent someone from viewing or editing my Gmail or Google Docs?
When you first sign in with a Google account, there is an optional field you can use to add other people that can share your Google credentials. This means that they will be able to receive email’s and documents in Gmail or view your current Google Document.

They may also have different settings within your Google account.
If you would like to remove someone from having access to these services, click on their name, email address or username in Gmail and click on “remove” at the bottom of the page.

Conclusion
Google Drive is a cloud storage service that makes sending and receiving files easy. Users can also backup their files to the internet by uploading them through computer or smartphone settings. Sometimes, there are instances when someone sends you something if they have access to your account. This can be done through a collaboration document in Google Drive through attaching an attachment someone has sent you to it. For example, if you want to send someone a file on Google Drive, they can attach one by clicking the button that says “Globally Attach” way above.
