Privacy and Security

For most parents, having some degree of control over who sees family photos is a priority. Of course, making it easy for technologically challenged friends and family to see your cuties is also a priority. This can be a tricky balancing act! Many websites for photos and video sharing include several levels of privacy. Media Mamas suggest you be sure you’re comfortable with who can access your images, and read the terms of use carefully.

• SafetyNet has a good collection of articles and videos on online safety here.
• If you’re on Facebook, learn more about privacy settings here.
• Microsoft also has some tips for families with older children. Read the article.
