Check what the game asks for
A simple browser game should not need contacts, camera access or sensitive personal information. GamesRich games do not require an account. If another site requests permissions unrelated to play, stop and ask why the permission is necessary before accepting it.
Understand advertisements
Advertising can support free websites, but it should be visually separate from game controls. Children may not recognize commercial content, so adults should supervise and explain the difference. Never enter payment or account information after following an unfamiliar advertisement.
Use trusted navigation
Check the address bar before entering information and avoid downloads presented as required game updates. Modern HTML5 games run in the browser. Keep the browser and operating system updated, and use built-in security warnings rather than bypassing them.
Protect healthy play habits
Choose games that can be paused, use reasonable session lengths and take movement breaks. Stop if play causes frustration, discomfort or conflict. The best safety plan combines suitable content, a well-configured device and active adult involvement.
