INTERNET SAFETY

The Littleton Police Department has a program designed for children and adults alike which provides several safety tips so that you can make your online experiences, safe and enjoyable.

Safety Tips for Children

1. If you see a website, email, or anything that makes you feel uncomfortable, talk to your parents or an adult you trust about it right away.
   
2. Never give out personal information like your name, address, telephone number, email, or school name.
   
3. Never meet someone face-to-face that you know only from the Internet. Remember that the people you chat with online may not be who they say they are.
   
4. Don't open emails from people you don't know - the emails may be spam that could give your computer a virus.
   
5. Check with your parents before you buy anything online.
   
6. Ask your parents before you download music or movies - it's illegal to download some of the things you find online.

Safety Tips for Parents

1. Always read a website's privacy policy before giving any personal information.
   
2. Make sure that a website offers a secure connection before giving credit card information.
   
3. Get informed about computers and the Internet.
   
4. Keep the computer in the family room or another open area of your home.
   
5. Have children use child-friendly search engines when completing homework.
   
6. Look into safeguarding programs or options your online service provider might offer. These may include monitoring or filtering capabilities.
