Online Safety - Social Media Safety

Not everyone online is who they claim to be. Verify a person's identity before connecting.

Personal details can be used by scammers or criminals. Think carefully before sharing information that reveals any of your routines or locations.

1. A tip for passwords: look around the room and choose 3 objects, a colour and a number. No one would be able to guess that!

2. Keeping your personal life on a separate account allows you to be restrictive with your settings sensor who can see your posts.

Screenshots, downloads and share can make content permanent, even after it has been deleted. This is especially important to remember with apps that "delete" after 24 hours. It might seem safe, but if someone has downloaded the photo or taken a screenshot, it is permanent.
