ClickThinkers know that the Internet's a great place. Check out these ways of using it well.

you find things that make you feel upset, uncomfortable or embarrassed.
you are asked for your name, address, age or a picture of you, or any personal information that you don't feel you want to share.
someone you've met on the Internet suggests a meeting.
you get a nasty email. It's not your fault, but don't reply.

you get email from someone you don't know. On the Internet people can pretend to be something that they are not, and an email from granny@cottage.com could really be from wolf@bigfangs.com
you're asked for information that belongs to other people, like their telephone number or credit card details. It's not fair to share it if they don't want you to. Always ask first.
Make the Internet an even better place by:
helping your family and friends learn fun and safe ways of using it!
being nice! Millions of people might read things you say publicly on the Internet. If you only ever say kind and truthful things about people, they'll never object.
