By engaging in an online community, like Fancy-name.com , you are potentially exposing yourself to safety risks. Here are some basic tips that we recommend you practice while interacting with people on Fancy-name.com .

• Do not share personal information with people you meet on Fancy-name.com. Personal information means "information that can be used to uniquely identify, contact, or locate a single person or can be used with other sources to uniquely identify a single individual". Here are some examples of personal information:
• • Full name
  • Phone number
  • Bank details
  • Home address
  • Facebook ID or other similar IDs
  • Websites containing information described above or information about your relatives, friends etc.

• Think twice before you share your email or instant messaging address with people on Fancy-name.com . The person you shared it with may not be the one he/she claimed to be and his/her intentions may not be fully disclosed.

• Do not send personal pictures to people you meet on Fancy-name.com .

• Be careful when opening files sent from people on Fancy-name.com . They can be harmful to your computer or it may not be the content that you think it is.

• We discourage having real-life meetings with people you met on Fancy-name.com . If you feel safe and still want to do it, you should follow these guidelines:
• • Always consult your parents or a trusted adult before you decide to meet someone. If possible, bring an adult to the encounter.
  • Let people know where you are going and when you will be back from the encounter.
  • Always arrange the meeting in a very public place like a popular coffee shop, a busy shopping mall, or similar place.

• If you decide to tell someone your age and/or gender, be honest about it. Being dishonest about your age/gender can lead to awkward, and potentially dangerous situations.

• Take threats, cyberbullying and other illegal activity seriously! If you feel that someone is threatening, bullying or performing other illegal activities to you, or someone else on Fancy-name.com - be quick to report this behavior to Fancy-name.com . If you know or suspect that a criminal act has taken place or may happen, report the case to your local police.
