What is Safer Internet Day?

Safer Internet Day is a movement aimed to ‘raise awareness of emerging online issues and current concerns such as digital identity and cyberbullying to name a few.

As an Internet Service Provider, we proudly support such an initiative. While we strive to deliver a 'Pure Internet Joy' experience for our clients - we recognise the equal importance of having a safer internet experience.

This year's theme, “Together for better internet”, speaks to how the effort for a safer and better internet environment will rely on us all joining forces and working together to do more.
