Kavi Guards a Secret

A shiny quiz pops up: "Win a prize! Just type your name, home address and phone number!" Kavi the owl's wing hovers over the keys… then stops. "A prize quiz doesn't need all that," she hoots, and asks Mum instead. Later her friend Pip wants to post a funny photo — with Kavi in it. "Is it okay if I post this?" Pip asks first. "Thank you for asking," says Kavi. "My private things are mine to protect — and so are yours."

A peek inside

A chatbot asks my name, my home address and my school so it can 'help' with my homework. What should I share?
A homework question never needs where I live or go to school — those are <b>private</b> details that could identify or find me. I share only the actual question, with no private information in it. If a site keeps pushing for private details, I stop and tell a trusted adult.

Try this at home: Name three things that count as 'private information' you should protect.

Questions parents ask

+What does it mean to 'protect your privacy'?

It means keeping your private information — your home address, phone number, exact location, passwords, date of birth and photos that identify you — safe, and only sharing it when it is truly needed and a trusted adult agrees. A chatbot or a game almost never needs those details, so you keep them private.

+What is 'consent', and why ask before sharing someone's photo?

Consent means asking someone and getting their permission first. Before you post a photo of a friend, tag them, or share their message or details, you ask: 'Is this okay with you?' Sharing someone's information without asking breaks their trust and their privacy — even if you didn't mean any harm.

+What are a child's 'data rights'?

Children have data-privacy rights too. You can ask a company what data it keeps about you (see it), ask it to fix information that is wrong, say no to data you don't want to give, change your mind and withdraw consent, and ask for your data to be deleted. You are always in charge of your own information.
