Quick privacy tips for students 

  • Think before you share. Keep details like your student number, home address address or cellphone number off public platforms. If it’s personal, keep it private.
  • Check your privacy settings. Review your privacy settings on social media and other platforms regularly. Control who can see your posts, profile and anything you’re tagged in.
  • Avoid posting personal or even university-related information that could be sensitive or misused.
