Security & Privacy Settings for Common Social Media Apps
Safety and privacy settings are crucial for protecting teens aged 13 to 18 on platforms like Snapchat, TikTok, and Instagram, as they help mitigate risks associated with cyberbullying, online predators, and exposure to inappropriate content. These settings allow teens to control who can view their posts, interact with them, and send direct messages, fostering a more secure and positive online experience. By enabling features such as content moderation, location privacy, and time limits, parents and teens can work together to promote digital responsibility while safeguarding personal information and mental well-being.
