Since power and control issues are a part of #DV, abusive partners frequently use technology and social media platforms to control those they abuse. Here are some things to help keep in mind as you use your phone, computer, or any device:
Your abusive partner could have access to your email account. To be safe, open an email account your partner does not know about on a safe computer and use that account for safety planning and sensitive communications. #DV
Cell phones can be tracked and call/text history can be retrieved. Consider purchasing a pay as you go phone that you keep in a safe place to allow you to make calls. #Digital #Abuse
Only post things you want the public to see or know. Once it’s online, it’s no longer under your control. Be protective of your personal information. #Safety #DV
You never deserve to be mistreated, online or offline.
