Netiquette

The netiquette is a set of rules and instructions for safe internet use. It includes the following things:

  • Never share your passwords with other people, not even your best friend.

  • Never reveal your surname, address, place of residence, e-mail address, phone number or the name of your school with strangers. 

  • Do not give pictures or private information about yourself or other people to strangers on the internet.

  • Ask your parents for permission when signing up on different websites and gaming services.

  • Tell your parents or other adults, if someone keeps sending you inappropriate messages or images online. 

  • Remember that no one can make you do anything online! If you do not feel comfortable, you can always leave.

  • Remember that the people who you meet online may not always be who they say they are. 

  • Never meet an online acquaintance in real life alone! 

  • Do not answer inappropriate or insulting messages from strangers.

  • Do not send inappropriate or insulting messages to others. Be respectful and take others into consideration.
