No worries - only because you had a connection to another person via TeamViewer it does not mean that this person can access your PC.
To access a computer via TeamViewer, the person needs your TeamViewer ID and your TeamViewer password.
You can get more information about security and passwords in our Knowledge Base., e.g. in this article: All about passwords

Hello @MOhammedkhater,
Thank you for your message. ?
Yes, sure to 100%,
If you want to add another layer of protection, you can also whitelist your account on your device.
This will make sure only your TeamViewer account (therefore, you), can connect to your device. You will find how to proceed in our latest Blog post under the subchapter Secure:
