Protecting ourselves and safeguarding our privacy, our reputation and our data are critical. All of this is even more vital than ever in a fast-paced, conversational environment where anything you publish acts like a digital tattoo and stays somewhere in cyberspace forever.
In this badge, we will not be covering in detail the responsibility companies have with respect to our data. Instead, we are focussing on how we as individuals need to act responsibly whenever we interact with anyone on social media, and whenever we publish anything on social media.
