People Online

The Internet has meant that we can communicate with people all over the world. Some people make friends and contacts online.

Knowing who you talk to

Some people talk to people they have met online and never met in real life.
You do not really know the people you only chat with online.
Sometimes it can feel like you do know the people you meet online.

Talking about online safely

Some people lie about who they are, and some people have bad intentions.
It is safer to chat online with friends and family you know in real life.
Never give out any personal information to online-only contacts.
Use a nickname and an avatar.

Child-friendly sites

Most social media sites have age restrictions to protect children.
- Only use child-friendly sites on the internet.

Never meet up

NEVER meet someone you have only met online.
If you’re going to do it, you have to tell more than one trusted adult in real life.
NEVER meet anyone new without a trusted adult present.

If you need help...

Talk to a trusted adult if you are worried about anyone’s behaviour online.
