Internet Safety Checklist

Use of the school's computers and Internet is a privilege, not a right.

PROTECT YOUR PRIVACY

Meetings: Absolutely never arrange to meet an online friend in person.

Passwords: Never give out your Internet passwords to anyone, even if the person claims to work for your Internet service provider.

Personal Information: Never give out personal information, such as your last name, address, phone number, picture or school name.

PROTECT YOUR FINANCES

Permission: Always ask for your parents' permission before making an online purchase.

Purchases: Don't purchase items from a site that conducts business over an unsecured server.

PROTECT YOURSELF

Copyright: Do not illegally copy music, movies, pictures or software.

Hacking: Do not illegally access or tamper with another persons' site or system.

Adult Pages: Do not view adult pages, pictures, or stories.

REMEMBER!

I am not responsible for what other people say and do on the Internet. Therefore if someone else online says or does something offensive or disturbing, or if I see images on a website that make me feel upset or disturbed in any way, I will tell my teachers. I will not get in trouble for telling my teachers.
