Safety Tips
Campusbug.com is a great place to meet people, have fun, and learn from one another. The most important thing to remember is to always be safe when you are online. You should also remember that people you meet on the internet might not be who they seem to be. If you're in any type of public forum, avoid giving out your full name, your mailing address, your telephone number, the name of your school, or any other information that could help someone determine your actual identity. We require that all of our members are at least 14 years of age to use the site. Keeping our community members safe is a major priority to us. Here are a few tips to remember…

  • Keep your identity private
    Never post any personal information in a public forum. Avoid giving out your full name, your mailing address, your telephone number, the name of your school, or any other information that could help someone determine your actual identity.
  • Be careful about who you meet online
    One of the biggest concerns in social networking is when members decide to meet in person. The safest way is to avoid meeting in person with online members. If you feel it's appropriate to meet someone then here are a few tips to follow. First, discuss it with your parents. Make sure they know the person and feel comfortable with the situation. Second, arrange to meet in a public place. Try to meet in a coffee shop, mall, or restaurant. Third, never go alone. There is always more safety in numbers.
  • Flag users for review
    One of the ways we can better protect your safety is by having you flag other members for review. If you receive an e-mail, chat comment, message, or inappropriate picture then hit the flag user for review button. This will help us better police the site and make Campusbug a more fun and enjoyable place.
  • Talk with your parents
    Communication is always the key. Keep an open line of communication between you and your parents. This doesn't mean that you give up your privacy, but it does give them a better understanding about your online activities.
  • Don't reply to spam
    Have a good spam filter and do not reply to any messages from unknown senders. Always use a free e-mail address that is easily disposable.
  • Don't give out your password
    Keep your password a secret and try to change it every once in a while too.
