Online Safety Pledge
I want to use the computer and
the Internet. I understand that there are certain rules about
what I should do online.
I agree to follow these rules:
1.
I will not give my name, address, telephone number, school, or
my teachers’/parents’ names, addresses, or telephone numbers, to
anyone I meet on the Internet.
2. I will not give out my email
password to anyone (even my best friends) other than my
teachers/parents.
3. I will not send a picture of
myself or others over the Internet without my teachers’/parents’
permission.
4. I will not fill out any form
or request online that asks me for any information about my
school, my family, or myself without first asking for permission
from my teachers/parents.
5. I will tell my
teachers/parents if I see any bad language or pictures on the
Internet, or if anyone makes me feel nervous or uncomfortable
online.
6. I will never agree to get
together with someone I “meet” online without first checking
with my teachers/parents. If my teachers/parents agree to the
meeting, I will be sure that it is in a public place and that I
am accompanied by an adult at all times.
7. I will not use any articles,
stories, or other works I find online and pretend it is my own.
8. I will not use bad language
online or put inappropriate pictures online.
9. I will practice safe
computing, and check for viruses whenever I borrow a disk from
someone, download something from the Internet, or receive an
attachment.
10. I will be a good online
citizen and not participate in any activity that hurts others or
is against the law or my school’s policy. |
