You keep getting signed out

The ordinary causes, and the one that means something.

Being signed out repeatedly usually has a boring cause. Work through these first.

  1. **Private or incognito browsing.** The session is discarded when the window closes.
  2. **Browser set to clear cookies on exit.** Same effect, less obviously.
  3. **A privacy extension blocking first-party cookies.** Allow the site.
  4. **Switching between the www and non-www address.** Use the address in your bookmark consistently.

If you have signed in from several different devices recently, the account may have been asked to re-authenticate. That is the device-sharing ladder doing its job — see Devices and account sharing.

It is not a punishment and nothing has been taken away. Signing in again clears it.
