How Do Privacy Issues Affect My Kids? Privacy means two things:
Personal privacy refers to your own online reputation; consumer
privacy refers to the data that companies can collect about you.
Kids need to manage both kinds by being careful about what they
post and by being aware of what kinds of data companies collect
(often buried in fine print). Strict privacy settings actually
can help protect both personal and consumer privacy. But kids
who are active online must understand that it is up to them to
manage their own online reputation. —Common Sense Media The
