SMART rules for childrenKeep safe by being careful not to give out personal information when you’re chatting or posting online.

Meeting someone you have only been in touch with online can be dangerous. Only do so with your parents’ or carers’ permission and even then only when they can be present.

Remember online friends are still strangers even if you have been talking to them for a long time.

Accepting emails, IM messages, or opening files, pictures or texts from people you don’t know or trust can lead to problems – they may contain viruses or nasty messages!

Someone online might lie about who they are and information on the internet may not be true.

Always check information with other websites, books or someone who knows.

If you like chatting online, it’s best to only chat to your real world friends and family. Tell your parent, carer or a trusted adult if someone or something makes you feel uncomfortable or worried, or if you or someone you know, is being bullied online.

Where to report any E-safety issues Cyber bullying can be reported as a crime under the Communications Act 2003 section 127, the Malicious Communications Act 1988 and, if there are more than three instances, the Protection from Harassment Act 1997.

Visit the police in person, ensure a statement is taken and request a crime number
