All about Online Manners

Online manners mean being kind, honest and respectful when using the internet. Think before you post, avoid sharing other peopleโ€™s private information and never join in with bullying.

A message can be copied and shared far beyond the first audience.

Treat people online as you would in person, and think before you post, comment or share anything. Words typed on a screen can hurt just as much as words spoken.

Avoid sharing rumours, and do not forward messages that could upset someone. Use polite language, and ask a trusted adult if you are unsure whether something is appropriate.
