Security Tips
At Home:
Some simple measures can help keep the online experience safer for your children. We hope to help you with these tips so you can also help us keep Lulilab a great place.
- Create house rules for the usage of the Internet with help from your kids so they feel more responsible and a part of the decisions.
- It's always a good idea to keep Internet-connected computers in an open area and out of your kids' bedrooms so you can keep an eye on it and create an environment more open to discussion.
- Help protect your children from offensive pop-up windows by using the pop-up blocker of your browser.
- Allow your kids to use only monitored chat rooms on reputable websites.
- Teach your kids not to download programs without your permission - they might download spyware or computer viruses without noticing.
- Also teach your kids that file-sharing and taking text, images, or artwork from the websites may infringe on copyright laws.
- Consider giving your child a limited user account on your computer to help keep them from participating in activities without your knowledge.
- Talk to your kids about online pornography and consider talking to them about health and sexuality.
- Try to have access to your kids' e-mail and instant messaging accounts to make sure they're not talking to strangers or being fooled by phishing.
- Help protect them from spam. Tell your teens not to give out their e-mail address online, not to respond to junk mail, and to use e-mail filters.
- Be aware of the Web sites that your teens frequent. Make sure your kids are not visiting sites with offensive content, or posting personal information or photos of themselves.
- Make sure your teens check with you before making financial transactions online, including ordering, buying, or selling items.
- Discuss online gambling and its potential risks with your teens. Remind them that it is illegal for them to gamble online.
While using Lulilab:
Talk to your kids about using Lulilab, how they communicate with others and how they represent themselves on chat rooms and profiles. Keep and open communication with them to know when they need help and guidance. A good idea is to talk with your kids about their online friends and activities just as you would about their other activities.
Kids shouldn't lie about how old they are. Lulilab members can be of any age, but we take extra precautions to protect our younger members and we are not able to do so if they do not identify themselves as such. Lulilab might delete users whom we find to be misrepresenting their age according to parents requests or law requirements.
Lulilab is a public space. Members shouldn't post anything they wouldn't want the world to know - such as phone number, address, Instant Message (MSN, ICQ, etc) screen name, etc. Tell your children they should avoid posting anything that would make it easy for a stranger to find them, such as schools, neighbourhoods, places they hangout or such.
Remind them not to post anything that could embarrass them later or expose them to danger. Although Lulilab is public space where anyone can register and log in, teens sometimes think that people other than their friends can't see what they post. Tell them that they shouldn't post photos or texts they don't want strangers to see. Also talk to them about responsible, ethical, online behaviour. They should not be using the Internet to spread gossip, bully, or make threats against others.
People aren't always who they say they are. Ask your children to be careful about adding strangers to their friends list. It's fun to connect with new friends from all over the world, but members should be careful when communicating with people they don't know. They should talk to you if they want to meet an online friend in person. If you judge it is safe, any meeting should take place in public and with friends or a trusted adult present.
Harassment, hate speech and inappropriate content should be reported. If your kids encounter inappropriate behaviour, let them know that they can tell you. Either way, let them know they should report it to you, Lulilab or the authorities. You can report these cases to Lulilab Crew at Support.
Don't get hooked by a phishing scam. Phishing is a method used by fraudsters to try to get your personal information, such as your username and password, by pretending to be a site you trust. Tell your children to be careful when they don't know what website is about and do report to us any strange activity inside Lulilab. It is also good to have Internet-filtering tools as a complement to parental supervision. You can report these cases to Lulilab Crew at Support.
