Digital Footprints

Digital footprint

Millions of years ago, dinosaurs stepped in mud.
The mud dried and turned to stone.
Their footprints stayed forever.
When you go online, your digital footprint may also stay for a long time.

Online reputations

Things you post or share online can be seen by people forever.
- It is the same with the things you post or share on your phone or computer.

Be careful

Some things can stay even when deleted on your device.
These things can be seen or used by people you don’t expect.
The information you share can be used now or in the future.

Online tracking

Online software can track the sites you visit.
- Some schools and bosses now check up to see how people have behaved online.

IP addresses

Every network has an identifying number called an IP address.
IP addresses can be traced back to the user.
