Sometimes a question may arise as how many sites I am present on? How many sites I have joined so far with my main email? How do I summarize my presence on those sites?
Social networking sites are being used to do the bird watching and looking into others profiles as a stranger recently. Studies have revealed that creating fake accounts have become a common phenomenon and the number is dangerously increasing.
If you are a net-savvy person and have made too many sign-ins and registrations from a number of years, your primary email may have flooded everywhere. Also, there are chances that some hacker or one of your own friend is misusing your account information for any reason.
With these issues keeping records of all those accounts and being aware of your presence on all such sites is highly advised to remain safe in the internet world.

1. Use your own Google Account
Log in to Google > Go to Dashboard > Account

Check If you have granted access to your Account through any site.
2. Go to Google Settings > Security (Left pan)
