How do I protect my privacy online?
Limit what you share, tighten privacy settings and use unique passwords and updates.
Protecting your privacy means controlling what personal information you share and who can see it. Small habits go a long way.
Start by reviewing the settings on your most-used accounts.
Settings and sharing
Set social media profiles to private, limit location sharing and review which apps have access to your camera, microphone and contacts.
Reduce tracking
Use a browser with strong privacy controls, block third-party cookies and avoid logging in with social accounts where you can.
Stay secure
Use unique passwords, 2FA and regular software updates. Think before you post: anything shared online can be copied.
