Digital Footprint

What are digital footprints?

You may not realise it but every time you go online you leave a trail. These days we are encouraged to add lots of pictures, videos and personal profiles about ourselves on the internet.

Your personal information is kept by companies for many years and can be viewed by any person wanting to find out information about you.
