and guardians.
COMPUTER ETHICS
Computer ethics are rules for using computers
in a kind, honest and safe way. Keep your
personal information safe, tell the truth and
respect others when you talk or share things
on the Internet.
Computer ethics is about the responsible use
of computers, digital systems and information
technology, ensuring that they benefit society
without causing harm.
Computer ethics include the following:
Respecting privacy: Always keep your personal information safe and don’t
share others’ private details without their permission.
Being honest: Don’t cheat or steal information from others. If you use someone
else’s work, always give them credit.
Safety online: Be careful when visiting websites or talking to people you don’t know
online. Not everyone on the Internet is kind, so be smart and protect yourself.
Responsible use: Always use the computer for good purposes like learning,
creating and having fun in safe ways.
