Protect personal information: Be careful about sharing personal details online, like your
passwords or address. For example, When posting pictures on social media, avoid sharing
personal details like your home address. This keeps your information safe.

information before sharing it. For example, Before sharing a news article, make sure it comes
from a reliable source. Sharing false information can cause confusion and harm.

information is wrong and can lead to legal consequences. For example, Only download apps
from trusted sources. Avoid pirating movies or software, as it can harm your device and is
illegal.

time. Make sure your online profile reflects your best self. For example, Think before posting a
comment or picture online. Once it’s posted, it’s hard to remove, so ensure it represents who
you want to be in the future.
Importance of Digital Citizenship
The internet is used by millions of people around the world and a single careless or thoughtless
post can have serious consequences. When you act responsibly online, you help make the internet
a safer and more positive space for everyone.
Digital citizenship is about using technology in a respectful, responsible and kind way. By being
a responsible digital citizen, you contribute to creating a digital world that is friendly, safe and
positive for everyone.
For example, when you share something online, think about how it could affect others. If you come
across a hurtful comment or post, instead of joining in, you can choose to ignore it or report it. This
helps to stop negativity from spreading.
Digital citizenship is not just about following rules. It’s about making choices that help everyone
enjoy the internet in a way that’s safe and respectful.
