Child safety and safeguarding
Children under 16
您必须至少16岁才能使用FutureLearn，因此，如果您15岁以下，则不得自己注册帐户。
Instead you should ask a parent or guardian to register an account for themselves, in their name, and then learn alongside them until you are old enough for your own account.
Children aged 13 to 15 who registered an account before 11 February 2022 may continue to access the site.
保持安全在线
At FutureLearn we think that talking about ideas with other people is a great way to learn, which is why we encourage learning through conversation.
As with any online environment where you can talk to other people, it’s important to stay safe and be aware of potential dangers, especially if you’re under 18.
在您开始与任何人进行交流之前，请花点时间思考您在线现有的存在。这是一个好主意查看隐私设置on any social media profiles you might have and make sure you’re comfortable with what you’re sharing. What happens if you search for your own name? Do any of the results surprise you?
这是我们最重要的Futurealearn隐私技巧：
- 仅在个人资料上使用一个字母，因此您将以“ firstName l”而不是“ firstName lastName”出现在其他人中
- Don’t use a profile picture of yourself
- 切勿与另一个用户共享直接联系方式（例如电子邮件地址，电话号码或Snapchat用户名） - 即使他们要求您为他们，或者他们是教育工作者
- 切勿分享您的确切位置，无论是在评论还是在您的个人资料中 - 您的国家都会做
- 注意不要透露有关您和您认识的人的其他个人信息，例如家庭成员，老师和朋友的名字
- 确保你有勾选了盒子为了停止您的FutureLearn个人资料出现在Web搜索结果中
- Help the community by looking out for and reporting anything you think might not be safe. FutureLearn moderators can help by hiding comments that contain personal details once you have reported them
