Know the difference between virtual cyberspace and the real world, and keep from indulging in the cyberspace. 2. Be cautious about revealing any information that could identify you since it may be abused by predators to harass you or to harm your well-being. 3. Teens under 18 years of age should surf the Internet under the guidance and supervision of their guardians. 4. Avoid getting together with someone alone that you meet online, and remember that people with bad intentions can be very determined to get what they want. 5. Tencent reserves the right to assist the public security authorities and Telecommunication authorities in investigating illegal activities. We seriously remind internet users that you should have a correct awareness of the cyberspace, and it is important that you use caution and avoid potential problems so you can safely enjoy being online. Teens generally have less life experience but with strong curiosity, so may be more likely to be hooked by virtual world in the cyberspace and easily be cheated or abused by people with bad intentions. Parents and teachers should talk with the teens about what they can and cannot do online, try to understand their needs, interests, and curiosity, and work with them to help avoid problems in cyberspace. Teens should know that who you meet online are not necessary who they say they are. Never try to meet people you only know online by yourself since you might put yourself in danger by meeting them even if you think you know them and trust them.
