Safe is Fun.
It's a kid's box too ! This is where both new and advanced Web users can find information on using the Internet and our online community wisely . . . and safely.
Keeping your password private allows you to participate with our show as a caller, a blogger, a buyer, on chat, and even on camera ! Keep your passwords private, even from your best friend ! We will never ask for them, so neither should anyone else.
Use only your log-in name and/or e-mail address when chatting or sending e-mail. Never give out personal information like your name, address, or phone number. The only place we will need access to this information is on our checkout page, or if you choose to receive email or regular mail from us from time to time.
Don't share photos of yourself, your family, or your home with people you meet online. Always delete unknown e-mail attachments without opening them. They can contain destructive viruses. If a person writes something that is mean or makes you feel uncomfortable, don't respond. Just log off and tell us via email or phone (and if you're under 18, your parents who can report it to us so we can make sure it does not happen again).
Remember that nothing you write on the Web is completely private -- including e-mail. So be careful and think about what you type and who you tell. And also remember that not everyone is as nice, cute, and funny as they may sound online. Never make plans to meet an online "friend" in person. When in doubt always ask your parents for help -- and just LOG OFF if you're not sure ! You can always go back online later.
