erase ipad

I hope to sell an old iPad so erased all content and settings, I then went into my list of trusted devices and removed it from the list. However, I read I should have signed out of iCloud and the iTunes & App Store first which I did not do. Is this an issue, ie will the new buyer be able to log into my iCloud and iTunes accounts? Or has the reset removed all of this?

Thank You for being considerate and thinking about the person who has bought your phone, you will need to assist the person you have sold your phone to by removing your Apple ID, or they will be unable to use the device.
