There is a wide debate among scholars focused on teenage behaviour in the online environment (e.g. Danah Boyd, Sandra Cortesi, Urs Gasser, Sonia Livingstone)
Different studies demonstrated that teens share a wide range of information about themselves in the online environment, but teens also show an increased consciousness of the value of personal information and of the consequences of personal data sharing.
The different approach adopted in this study:
It focuses on the aspects of online behaviour most related to regulatory profiles, namely online privacy and security
Partner: CSP-Piemonte (Safetykids@school project)

Key findings
In the second sample, the results show that different educational backgrounds do not affect the online behaviour of teens. There are not relevant differences between students with a humanistic background and students with a technological of scientific background, also with regard to the technical aspects of online security
The most used devices to interact online are still computers, nevertheless there is an increasing use of mobile connections and gaming consoles (among male students of secondary school)

Online safety
A central role is played by parents and other members of the family in giving first information on online safety. The importance of these figures decreases with the age of the respondents, conversely teachers and media also play a more important role.

Data protection and notice-and- conset model
The results of the survey confirm that the traditional model of notice-and-consent is going into crisis.
The respondents are aware of privacy risks and of means of managing their own profiles, nevertheless they have low interest in reading privacy notices. They consider notices unclear, difficult to find or unnecessary.
In many case, respondents give importance to the merely presence of privacy policies and to the reputation of service providers
