✔ Step-by-Step Solution:
Let’s go through each item and determine if it's
Safe or
Private:
| Item | Classification | Reason |
|------|----------------|--------|
| 1. Your first and last name |
✘ Private | Full names can be used for identity theft or tracking. Sharing your full name online can be risky. |
| 2. A photo of yourself |
✘ Private | Photos can be misused, shared without permission, or used in scams. |
| 3. What sport you play |
✔ Safe | This is general information and doesn’t reveal sensitive details. It’s okay to share. |
| 4. Your phone number |
✘ Private | Phone numbers can be used for spam, harassment, or identity theft. |
| 5. Your favourite book |
✔ Safe | This is harmless and fun to share. No risk involved. |
| 6. Your street address |
✘ Private | Sharing your address can lead to physical harm or theft. Never share this online. |
| 7. Where you go after school |
✘ Private | This reveals your routine and could be exploited by predators. |
| 8. Your favourite colour |
✔ Safe | Harmless and safe to share. |
| 9. Your email address |
✘ Private | Email addresses can be used for phishing, spam, or account hijacking. |
