You should never:

  • tell anyone your full name, address, phone number or school
  • send a photo of yourself to anyone that you don’t know

You should ALWAYS:

  • be careful who you talk to online
  • ask permission to use online games with chat features
  • tell your parents or carer if someone says something to you online that makes you feel uncomfortable or unsafe
  • stay away from websites that are not meant for children
  • remember that people are not always who they say they are online
