Your parents always taught you that sharing is caring, but when it comes to sharing your personal information online, practice the opposite. Providing your personal information over social media freely enables strangers access to everything about you. #K12CAM2022

Winner, winner, chicken dinner! Before the excitement clouds your judgement, always verify the legitimacy of any contest or giveaway AND a win before sharing any personal information or reply. Sometimes if it’s too good to be true, it just might be! #K12CAM2022

Real emergencies don’t generally happen over email. Does a friend need an urgent favour? Need to wire a long-lost family member money RIGHT now? What’s the rush? If it needed to be done quickly, there are many other, safer ways to ask. Recognize the red flags. #K12CAM202

If they have one — they have them all! Using unique passwords on all of your accounts is the first step to ensuring the safety of your personal information. Need help remembering all those passwords? Use a password manager like Google Passwords. #K12CAM2022

We’re not screen-shaming, it’s reality! It can be especially helpful to replace your social media and tech use with other mood-boosting activities that don’t require your phone or tablet.Set up time to hang out with friends in person, go for a walk, hike, or bike ride #K12CAM2022
