ClickCEOP application for Facebook
In the UK CEOP and Facebook have developed a new free application or app which aims to help young people stay safe within Facebook. ‘ClickCEOP’ links the young user and parent directly from their Facebook home page to help, advice and the reporting facilities of the Child Exploitation and Online Protection (CEOP) Centre.
The ‘ClickCEOP’ app provides advice on a range of issues – viruses, hacking, dealing with bullying online and how to report someone who is acting inappropriately towards them online. Once added to their profiles, young users will receive regular messages from CEOP and its partner organisations. CEOP’s new Facebook page will also contain polls, news alerts and status updates. The move is being supported by an advertising campaign on Facebook that will encourage take up. Email CEOP for more information.
