2 Safety Tips:
- Use a secure browser. This is the software you use to navigate the Internet. Your browser should comply with industry security standards. Using a secure browser is extremely important. Failure to use a secure browser could result in all of your information being accessible through the internet. Help protect yourself and make sure you use a secure browser.
- Keep your password private. Most sites require that you set up a username and password. Failure to keep your password private could result in someone logging into your account and viewing your information. Don’t use a password that is easy to figure out like a birthday or anniversary. Create a password that is a combination of both letters and numbers. Creating a safe password and keeping it to yourself is a sure way to ensure safety when using online shopping sites.
