Are you SMART?
SMART Safe Keep safe Be careful not to give out personal information such as your email address, phone number , real name or password, when you are chatting or gaming on line. Meet Accept Reliable Never meet someone you have only been in touch with online without your parents’ or carers’ permission and even then only when they can be present. Online friends are still strangers. Never accept emails, messages, or open files, images or texts from people you don’t know or trust – they may contain viruses or nasty messages! Is it reliable? Someone online might lie about who they are and information on the internet may not be true. Always check information by looking at other websites, in books, or with someone who knows. If you like chatting online it’s best to only chat to your real world friends and family. Tell a parent, carer or a trusted adult if someone, or something, makes you feel uncomfortable or worried, or if you or someone you know is being bullied online.
