How to Delete Digital Footprints

                  Since digital footprints can be used in both positive and negative ways, it is essential to manage
                  them carefully. Follow these guidelines to minimise your digital footprint:
                      Keep deleting the browsing history and cookies from your computer regularly.

                      Turn on your privacy settings in such a way that only your family or friends can see your posts.
                      Always upload appropriate content online.

                      Choose secure passwords that are unique to each login and be sure to change them regularly.
                      Remember that anything posted is public (even if your social network settings are private), as
                     the information is stored on a server.
