Don't store any personal information on the company computer.
Anything you do, they may be able to monitor, back up, recover, etc
Don't look at porn on the company computer, Don't use Facebook on the company computer, don't like sketchy models on Instagram from the company computer.
If they just gave you a computer budget, and then ask you to return the computer at the end, and they don't run any of the software... You could use full disc encryption, and then reformat put a new key on it when you return it. You could just take the disc out, and replace it with a new disc when you return it
Anecdote time:
A company would give people company blackberries, but people would have to add their own personal cell phone plan if they wanted to make and receive phone calls and text messages. But the phone was managed by the company. When a friend had some spicy text messages flagged by HR for review, they rather indignantly said this is my phone! This is my phone plan! They have no right.... And our boss very kindly very nicely said, we don't pay you enough to buy your own phone?
"No, you do not. Next question please"
