Encrypt your data with a vpn:-
encryption increases your data privacy even if you do get sniffed. your encrypted data is useless to someone who uses sniffer making the sniffed data useless for the hacker.
Don't visit unencrypted websites:-
Always use secure websites to use,take a quick look at URL of the website and only proceed if it begins with HTTPS or not. if your using a insecure website it may be hacked by sniffers and maybe be used against you
