Content that contains personal information or your  whereabouts could pose a safety risk. Even content that is deleted can  sometimes be accessed by the website or through screenshots of the  original post and could be used maliciously.<\/li><li><strong>Turn off geolocation.<\/strong> Many social media sites or  apps will request to access your location, but in most cases this isn\u2019t  necessary. You can still get the most out of your social media  experience without sharing where you are while you\u2019re there. If sharing  where you are is important to you, consider waiting to tag the location  until you leave. In addition to this, some sites may automatically make  geotagged information public. When you \u201ccheck in\u201d on Facebook, update  your Instagram story, or add a geotag to a Snapchat, these sites may  share your exact location with people you may or may not trust with it.  Take a look at the privacy settings on the sites listed above, or others  you use regularly, to see what your location settings are and consider  updating them.<\/li><li><strong>Use a private Internet connection.<\/strong> Avoid public  Wi-Fi connections, like those offered at coffee shops or airports, when  using a website that asks for a password. Limit your social media usage  to personal or private Wi-Fi networks, while using cellular data on your  phone, or under the protection of a Virtual Private Network (VPN).<\/li><li><strong>Talk to your friends about public posts.<\/strong> Let your  friends know where you stand on sharing content that may include  personally identifying information, like your location, school, job, or a  photo of you or your home. Respect each other\u2019s wishes about deleting  posts that may be embarrassing or uncomfortable. Always ask permission  before you post something about another person, whether it mentions them  indirectly, by name, or in a picture. To help keep track of your online  presence, you can change your settings so that tagged photos of you  will only appear on your profile\u2014but won\u2019t be shared publicly on your  timeline\u2014if you have approved the post on Facebook or other social media  accounts.<\/li><li><strong>Report harassment or inappropriate content.<\/strong> If  someone is making you feel uncomfortable online, you can report the  interaction to the host site, often anonymously. You can use the  \u201creport\u201d button near the chat window, flag a post as inappropriate, or  submit a screenshot of the interaction directly to the host site. If you  do experience harassment or abuse through social media, consider taking  screenshots immediately and saving them in case the content is deleted  or removed from your view. To collect evidence of harassment on  Facebook, you can download your full Facebook history through the <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Download Your Information (DYI) (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/help\/1701730696756992?helpref=hc_global_nav\" target=\"_blank\">Download Your Information (DYI)<\/a> feature.<\/li><li><strong>Look before you click.<\/strong> If you get a suspicious  sounding message or link from a friend through social media, it\u2019s best  not to automatically click it. Your friend\u2019s account may have been  hacked, which could cause everyone in their contacts list to receive  spam. If you\u2019re not sure it\u2019s spam, try contacting that person another  way to ask if they meant to send you a link recently.<\/li><li><strong>Pick strong passwords and update them frequently. <\/strong>This  can help protect against someone who may be trying to sign on to your  account for negative reasons like posting spam, impersonating you, or stalking. In addition to choosing strong passwords and updating them, remember to keep your passwords in a secure location.<\/li><li><strong>Make privacy a habit by doing a regular social media privacy check-up.<\/strong>  Once you\u2019ve gone through the privacy settings in your social media  accounts, set a reminder on your calendar to revisit them in three or  six months. Companies may change policies or update their platforms  which could affect how you would like to share your information online.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Have you encountered sexual content or images relating to a minor?
