Ensure phone is locked with an 8 digit pin and that biometrics (i.e. Face ID) are turned off. Cover your face to protect your identity.

Don'ts: Bring kids, pets, or vulnerable people. Bring a weapon of any kind or anything that could be construed as a weapon. Bring drugs, alcohol, or any other substances.
