Social Smarts: Nothing Personal!
A new smartphone is a big responsibility for kids, who often have a lot to learn about using them safely, especially when it comes to protecting their privacy.
The Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada has created a graphic novel, Social Smarts: Nothing Personal! to help young Canadians better understand and navigate privacy issues in the online world.
The 12-page graphic novel is designed to appeal to kids aged 8-10.
Social Smarts: Privacy, the Internet and You
This graphic novel was created by privacy offices across Canada, including the Yukon Information and Privacy Commissioner, to help young Canadians know more about privacy issues in the online world.
