Here are our top tips for being safe online

GK - my top tip is whenever your on a website go on the address bar and make sure the website starts with https than http. If it says http it means the website is not safe but if you have https that means your on a safe website and you have a less chance of getting hacked.

CF My top tip is do not go to 18 + game or you might see violence and bullying. You must only go on games that are age appropriate.

PG When you are on a computer you need to be careful because you could see something inappropriate which you do not want to see. As well that you do not want to be bullied on the internet . that is called cyber bullying. This might happen more on older age sites such as 18+

OP - My top tip for online safety is to look for one of these 2 things: privacy policy and a lock on the search bar. the lock means its secure and the words privacy policy means you can go into the words and it helps you keep private and it lets you ban people if they are being mean to you.

MB - My top tip would be play age appropriate games and block chatting. Remember not to give any private details, even your first name.

MM: If I saw an inappropriate game or image I would report the game and tell my parents. I would also find a different game to play instead. If I see bulling in an online game, I would ban the player from my account and tell them to stop.
