PROJECT: 'Do you feel safe on the Internet?'

TIPS FOR SURFING THE NET IN A SAFE WAY

1. Don't give your personal information to anyone (name, age, address, phone number, school name, email,

passwords and so on).

2. Be polite and friendly.

3. Don't gossip about anyone because you could hurt other people's feelings.

4. Visit appropriate websites for kids.

5. Don't upload inappropriate pictures of yourself or of your friends or family.

6. Protect personal privacy online.

7. Use privacy settings on your social network page.

8. Be selective when adding friends to your wall.

9. Don't post private stuff.

10. Respect other people's privacy.

11. Never open unknown emails.

12. Don't use the Internet to find new people. Online 'friends' aren't real. F2F ones are.

13. Stop and think before you click.

14. Users are always responsible for their accounts.

15. Make a difference between personal messages and wall posts.

16. Protect your computer with some antivirus.

17. Disable your webcam.

18. Tell an adult if you see anything you are uncomfortable with.

19. Remember: Nothing is really private on the Internet.
