What my accounts store
Identify what personal data is stored and shared in their own online accounts (e.g. a school learning account or a game) — profile name, photo, age, location, contacts and work — who can see it, and discuss the associated risks
Lesson
Set out your lesson
“What my accounts store means practising the idea at the table with a simple screen-free or sandbox check. We will demo once, then your child tries.”
Bring to the table
- A paper “account card” (username blank) and sticky notes
- Pencil
Extra for the adult
Worked example. Sharing a school photo location publicly is not safe — it shows where you are.
Optional challenge. For What my accounts store, add one harder example after success.
What to notice. Keep one parent note: examples tried; results; support used. This session samples What my accounts store, not mastery.

Check understanding
- Explore the profile and settings of a school or game account with a teacher and list the personal data it stores
- Identify who can see each item (only me, my teacher, my class, anyone) and change one privacy setting with adult support
- Discuss a risk of sharing data such as a location or full name in a public profile and how to reduce it
“Looking at your child's game or school account together, could they tell you what personal information it stores, who can see it and what the risks might be?”
