Girl Scout Online Safety Pledge
Be prepared as you travel through cyberspace the same way you would be prepared for a field trip.
Read this pledge and print out a copy; discuss cyber safety with your adult advisor.
- I will not give out personal information such as my address, telephone number, parent or
guardian work address or phone number, or the name and location of my school without my
parents’/
guardians’ permission.
- I will tell an adult right away if I come across any information that makes me feel uncomfortable.
- I will never agree to get together with someone I “meet” online without first checking with my
parents/guardians. If my parents/
guardians agree to the meeting, I will be sure that it is in a
public place and bring my parent or guardian along.
- I will never send a person my picture or anything else without first checking with my
parents/guardians.
- I will not respond to any messages that are mean or in any way make me feel uncomfortable. It
is not my fault if I get a message like that. If I do I will tell my parents/
guardians right away so
that they can contact the online service.
- I will talk with my parents/guardians so that we can set up rules for going online. We will decide
upon the time of day that I can be online, the length of time I can be online, and appropriate
areas for me to visit. I will not access other areas or break these rules without their permission.
