Ask permission
from an adult, like
your teacher or
parent, before you
go online. They can
make sure the
places you visit
are just right
for you!
Don't talk to
strangers online –
they might not be
who they say they are.
Only talk to people
you know in-person,
and ask an adult for
permission rst.
Set a time limit
with devices. You
don't want to miss
out on other important
things, like spending
time with your friends
and family, nishing
homework, or getting
enough sleep!
Only share
your login and
password with a
trusted adult. Don't
share with others,
they could log in to
your account and
pretend to
be you.
