be aware of your on-line reputation, which consists of information you post about yourself and information posted by others, and consider that when seeking employment, many prospective employers will use publicly available on-line information. Remember, the internet never forgets!
keep passwords secret and protect access to accounts.
regularly review your privacy settings.
discuss expectations with friends – are you happy to be tagged in photos?
be aware that, increasingly individuals are being held to account in the courts for the things they say on social network sites.
keep personal phone numbers private.
keep a record of your phone’s unique International Mobile Equipment Identity (IMEI) number, keep phones secure and report thefts to the police and mobile operator as soon as possible.
keep any evidence of an incident, for example not deleting text messages or emails and by taking a screen capture of material, including the URL or web addresses.
Don’t:
post information and photos about yourself publicly that you wouldn’t want employers or colleagues to see.
retaliate to any incident or inappropriate messages.
