Online Safety

Here are some important things to remember while you're online:
· Use COMMON SENSE. This is probably the most important thing you can do.
· Don’t put yourself in risky situations. Chat rooms pose the greatest risk for online predators.
· Remember that a person can be anyone. If you have everything in common with soeone and it's too good to be true...it probably is.
· If a person on the Internet asks you to keep them self a secret RED FLAG! A friend wouldn’t be asking you to keep themselves hidden.
· Never give out personal
information.
· Never post photos of
yourself.
· Never meet face to face.
· Never enter a website that charges for services without your parents
permission.
· Never download files from and unknown source.
· Never think that once something is deleted is gone forever.
