Stay safe and have fun!

The Internet is a great place to chat to friends and have fun but it's important to stay safe too.

To keep safe you should:

1. Only email people you know, (why not consider setting up an address book?)
2. Be careful before opening an email sent by someone you don’t know. It may contain a virus or unwanted content.
3. Be very careful when using Internet chat rooms and know how to block unwanted users. Never give away personal details like your real name, phone numbers, address etc.
4. Do not use your real name when using games on the Internet, (create a nick name).
5. Never give out a home address, phone or mobile number.
6. Never email your school name or a picture in school uniform (even to a friend).
7. Never arrange to meet anyone alone, you must always tell an adult first.
8. Only use a webcam with people you know and turn it around if it is not in use.
9. Tell an adult straight away if you see anything online you are unhappy with.
10. You don’t have to put up with cyber bullying, or bullying of any kind, don’t be afraid to tell an adult.
