Canvas Access Report Discrepancy

I am currently on leave from work, but my supervisor has emailed me, stating that they see I am active in Canvas. However, I haven’t accessed Canvas since last weekend. After receiving the first email earlier this week, I closed all Canvas browser tabs and deleted the app from my phone. Despite this, I received another email this morning with the same concern.
My supervisor stated they are checking the "People" tab for login times and using the "access report" under my name to track activity. To investigate, I briefly logged in and reviewed the access report myself. I noticed multiple activity entries, including logins, that I did not perform since going on leave.
Does anyone know how Canvas logs activity for instructors in shared courses and how accurate this data is?
I co-teach a course with multiple instructors, but I am the primary creator of many pages and assignments in our course. Could Canvas be attributing activity from other instructors to me because I originally created the content?
Or, should I be concerned about a breech in my Canvas account security?
I have reached out to IT at my institution, but their response has been delayed, and I was hoping to get a quicker answer. Thank you for your time.
