Internet and Phone Safety

Your abusive partner may be trying to track your Internet, email and/or phone activity without your knowledge. He or she may find out who you are talking to or what information you are looking at on the web, and this can be dangerous.

The safest way to find information on the Internet is to go to a safer computer. Some suggestions would be your local library, a friend's house or your workplace. Other safety suggestions: Change your password often, do not pick obvious words or numbers for your password, and make sure to include a combination of letters and numbers for your password.

Your cell phone can also be a way for an abusive partner to track and/or monitor what you are doing and who you are talking to. Know your phone and its settings and check them often.
