This document discusses digital footprints and the impact of online navigation. It begins by defining a digital footprint as content online that is traceable back to an individual, such as photos, videos, posts, etc. It notes that digital footprints can be permanent and influence opinions. Several statistics are presented, such as 81% of kids under 2 having some online presence, and what personal information teens share online. The document also discusses laws and guidelines around protecting kids online, including COPPA, CIPA, and the importance of open communication between parents and children regarding internet use and safety.

2. Digital Footprint

3. Digital Footprint???
• Simply put, a digital footprint is the amount of content, whether it
be words, photographs, audio, or video, that is traceable back to
a given individual. Parts of your digital footprint include
photographs uploaded to sites like flikr, blog posts attributed to
you on Blogger, video files you uploaded to YouTube, posts you
wrote on your friends' Facebook Walls, and posts to your
Facebook wall by your friends. Content like this makes up your
digital footprint. Two things are most notable about the Digital
Footprint - first, like all information on the Internet, it can be
permanent; second, more and more of us have begun to actively
search out the digital footprint of our peers and are influenced by
what we find, both in opinion and in action.

4. • A recent survey from AVG, an online security
company, found that 81% of kids under the age of
2 have some kind of “digital footprint” online,
usually in the form of e-mail accounts, social
networking pages and photos posted on the Web.

8. coppa
COPPA is enforced by the U.S. Federal Trade Commission.
It requires U.S.-based websites that collect personal information
from people under the age of 13 to obtain permission from parents
or guardians before asking for such data

attract children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect

age of 13. If you are under 13 years old and wish to ask a
question or use this site in any way which requires you to submit
your personal information, please get your parent or guardian to
