Your Privacy Online & With AI š
What Does AI Know About You?
Every app and AI tool collects data. Let's be honest about what they know:
| App | What it collects |
|---|---|
| TikTok | Every video you watch (+ for how long), location, device info |
| Every search, location history, websites visited | |
| ChatGPT | Everything you type in conversations |
| Spotify | Every song played, skipped, replayed, at what time |
| Photos, who you follow, what you look at, location |
šØ Things You Should NEVER Share With AI Tools
Code
ā Your full name + home address together ā Your school name + daily schedule ā Passwords or security codes ā Credit card or bank details ā Photos that show your location ā Personal problems about specific real people
ā Things That Are Fine to Share
Code
ā General questions about any topic ā Help with school subjects (general, not "write my essay for me"!) ā Creative writing prompts ā Coding help ā Explanations of things you don't understand ā Ideas and brainstorming
š¶ Why AI Tools Have Age Limits
Most big AI tools require users to be 13 or older (some 18+).
This isn't just a random rule ā it's because:
- Laws like COPPA (USA) and GDPR (UK/Europe) give children special data protections
- Children's data requires extra care and parental consent
- Young users might share more personal info without realizing the risks
š± The "Sharing is Permanent" Rule
Once you share something online or with an AI:
Code
Your message ā AI processes it ā May be stored
ā
May be reviewed by humans
ā
May be used to improve AI
ā
Very hard to delete! ā ļøThink before you type! The internet has a long memory.
š” Your Digital Footprint
Everything you do online creates a digital footprint ā a trail of data.
In 10 years, future employers, universities, or even your own children might find things you posted today. Choose wisely!
Top tip: If you wouldn't want a teacher or parent to see it, don't send it to an AI either!
