eSafety/Netiquette

Core principles

• Be inclusive. Everyone’s opinions and views are always welcomed and allowed.

• Be respectful. Members of the eTwinning community must be respectful when dealing with their peers and interacting with one another. eTwinners cannot insult or put down others, or incite violence against people based on their race, ethnicity, national origin, religion, sexual orientation, or gender, and/or as a member of a country, group, or minority.

• Be tolerant. Disagreement is inevitable, from time to time. What is important is to seek constructive solutions to disagreements and differing views.

• Be polite and friendly in all forms of communication – especially remote communication, where opportunities for misunderstanding are greater. Being polite means being aware and respecting the feelings of other people and showing it.

Private information and Sensitive data

You should not share your and other eTwinners' private information such as personal phone numbers and addresses, credit cards details, or other private information or intimate pictures and videos. Always think before you post!
