10 Tips for Staying Safe Online

1. Don’t post any personal information online – like your home address,

email address or phone number.

2. Think carefully before uploading pictures or videos of yourself.

Once you’ve put a picture of yourself online most people can see it and

may be able to download it and pass it on to their friends.

3. Never give out your passwords (not even to your best friends)

4. Do not befriend people you don’t know.

5. Remember that not everyone online is who they say they are.

6. Don’t meet up with people you’ve met online. Speak to an adult

about anyone who suggests that you meet them in person.

7. Think carefully about what you are typing before you post it online.

8. Respect other people’s opinions, even if you don’t agree with them. If

you have something to say there is no need to be rude.

9. Don’t download files or attachments from people or websites you

don’t know. Check with an adult before you download anything

unknown as it may be an unwanted message or harm your computer or

mobile device.

10.If you see something online that makes you feel uncomfortable,

unsafe or worried: leave the website and tell an adult immediately!

It’s always a good idea to make sure a parent, teacher or guardian knows when

you’re surfing the net. You could even teach them how to learn things online and

about the Internet, computers and other technology that you have learned in your

Dojo!
