A gentle guide to respecting others — and protecting yourself — in everyday life and online.
Age is deeply personal. Asking a woman her age can feel intrusive and disrespectful. Let people share it if and when they choose to.
Not just men — anyone! A person's earnings are private. Asking can create awkwardness, comparison, or discomfort. It's simply not your business.
Academic scores are personal achievements. Unless someone volunteers to share them, never ask. Not everyone is comfortable discussing their results.
Never casually share your name, age, email, family details, or number of kids on the Internet. Once shared, it's very hard to take back.
Your location is sensitive. Share it only when absolutely and explicitly required — not by default, not out of habit, and never freely on social media.
Avoid sharing personal struggles, drawbacks, or vulnerabilities on the Internet. What you share can be misused, judged, or taken out of context.
Every post you make, every comment you leave, every like you give — they all become tiny data points. Together, they quietly build a shadow profile of who you are.
This silent persona is assembled by algorithms, data brokers, and even strangers — often without your knowledge or consent.
Be mindful. The internet has a long memory. Protect the story only you should tell.
