Home Frequently Asked Questions Internet Safety - Use of chatrooms Six point plan

Six point plan

• Don’t give out personal details, photographs, or any other information that could be used to identify you, such as information about your family, where you live or the school you go to.
• Don’t take other people at face value – they may not be what they seem.
• Never arrange to meet someone you’ve only ever previously met on the Internet without first telling your parents, getting their permission and taking a responsible adult with you. The first meeting should always be in a public place.
• Always stay in public areas of chatrooms where there are other people around.
• Don’t open an attachment or downloaded files unless you know and trust the person who has sent it.
• Never respond directly to anything you find disturbing – save or print it, log off and tell an adult.
