In the same way that we learn about safety when we leave our homes, we also need to know how to stay save when we are online using the internet. There are some golden rules that everybody should follow to be safe when using the internet. Some of these rules are:
- Don't give out personal information such as your address or phone number. - Don’t send pictures of yourself to anyone, especially indecent pictures.
- Don't open emails or attachments from people you don't know.
- Don't become online ‘friends’ with people you don't know.
- Never arrange to meet someone in person who you've met online.
- If anything you see or read online worries you, tell someone about it.
- Don't give out personal information such as your address or phone number.
