Can my boss see what else I work on in PS?

My boss purchased PS for me (he pays for it each year) and it is installed on my home computers where I work. Because of him paying for it, I believe he has access to my PS and/or Adobe account as he also has access to my work email (the account may also be under his email but I can't remember).

 

Can he see what photos or projects I am working on or have worked on in the past? I use it for a lot of personal stuff when off the clock, and it would be very embaressing if he was able to see the content. 

 

Or is it only visible on my specific computer(s)?

As I said he can't see what your working on if you store you files locally on the PC, your Creative Cloud account is associated with your computer user profile, that's why your recent files as not the same on each PC

Hi

If you're working locally, there's no way your boss can see what you're working on, also unless you gave him/her your Adobe account password he wouldn't have access to your Adobe account

It's been many years so I don't really remember, but I think he is the one that set up the account (different account than this one). 

 

So if he has the password, he can see everything I've worked on?

The reason it's a bit confusing to me is because I've noticed that when I open PS on my media computer, I can only see in the Recent, stuff I have worked on with this specific computer. Same with the computer in my office.
