• Everything online is permanent and viewable
– If you wouldn’t say it to your Grandparents, a teacher, a judge, your Mom or Dad, or on a loudspeaker in the middle of a crowded stadium:
– Don’t say it online. (Or in a text. Or send it as a picture. Or attach your name to it.)
A Good Rule of Thumb for Kids (and Adults)
• Do not share personal information on any site or app
– Don’t use your email, full name, address, school, or birthdate.
– Make sure location features are disabled to prevent automatic tagging in places like your home and school.
Privacy: Be Careful What You Share
