Staying safe online

ALDASO is a website with information about staying safe when using the internet. It is for adults with a learning disability, autistic adults, and carers and supporters.

There is lots of information on the website. For example:

• How to stay safe on social media.
• How to avoid scams (when people try to steal your money).
• How to avoid seeing things that are upsetting or dangerous.
• How to avoid being tricked into doing things that are unsafe or illegal.

The website talks about things that can be hard to understand, and can be upsetting. So a good way to use the website is for people to look at it with someone who supports them.

The website is written in plain English. But it is not in easy read using lots of pictures. This is because the information is very hard to show using pictures.

This is the link to the website: https://aldas.online/ - remember that there is information on here that might be difficult and upsetting.
