ONLINE SAFETY

In today’s digital world, online safety is critical, especially if you’re facing honour-based violence. At True Honour, we understand the risks involved and are here to help you protect your privacy. Following these tips can help ensure your safety while using the internet:

Use Private Browsing Mode:

Ensure that your browser does not save your history, cookies, or temporary files.

Private browsing prevents others from viewing your online activities.

Always close all tabs and windows after your session to erase any traces.

Regularly Clear Your Browser History:

Delete your browsing history, cookies, and cached files frequently.

Use browser settings to automatically clear history after each session.

Consider using browser extensions that help manage and secure your online data.

Avoid Sharing Personal Information on Social Media:

Limit the personal details you share publicly, including your location, job, or relationship status.

Use privacy settings to restrict who can see your posts and profile.

Be cautious about connecting with new people and avoid sharing information with those you do not fully trust.

Use Secure and Anonymous Email Addresses:

Create a separate email account for sensitive communications that cannot be traced back to you.

Use a strong password and enable two-factor authentication for added security.

Avoid using your real name or any identifying information when creating accounts.

Be Cautious with Messaging Apps:

Use encrypted messaging apps like Signal or WhatsApp for sensitive conversations.

Delete messages and call logs regularly.

Ensure that notifications do not display the content of incoming messages on your locked screen.
