Safer Internet Day (SID) is an international event that takes place each year in February. It’s a day to reflect on the fact that just like in the real world, we need to look out for ourselves and use our common sense in cyberspace as well!
This year’s theme is
"It's more than a game, it's your life". Most of us are well aware of the dangers on the web, but here are the key messages for this year’s Safer Internet Day. Better safe than sorry! ;)

1. Control Your Digital Reputation[/size]
Remember that the things you post online now can affect you in the future as well!

2. Protect Your Privacy[/size]
It’s up to you to control who sees your information. Sharing your personal details online is never a good idea. Make sure there isn't any information that could help a stranger figure out who you are or where you live. Personal information like your telephone number or home address should NEVER be shared online with people you don't know.

3. Be A Good Friend[/size]
It’s all about treating others online as you want to be treated. Don't post anything about a friend that you wouldn't say to his or her face. Easy!
