Poster 1
The Digital Code
Four promises for staying safe, kind and smart online.
- 01
Keep it private
Never share your password, address, school or photos with people online.
“My info is mine.”
- 02
Be kind online
Type only what you would say face to face. Stand up for others — screenshot and tell.
“Words matter.”
- 03
Stop and think
Free prizes, pop-ups and pushy messages are often tricks. Pause before you tap.
“Too good to be true?”
- 04
Tell a trusted adult
If something online feels weird, scary or wrong, tell a grown-up you trust. You won't be in trouble.
“Speak up early.”
