Keep Safe Online by Taking The "KidzSearch Safety Pledge"

1.) I will never give out any personal information that can identify me online unless my parents say it is okay. Things like passwords, links to social media sites, cell phone or home number, current location, full name, credit card number, social security number, school name, and home address must never be given out. Other things, like your birthday or age are okay in certain cases, but it is best to keep that private.
