Access to Content

Certain content on StayWise.co.uk may be accessible only to registered users, such as those working in education, volunteering with children and young people, or within the blue light community (e.g., emergency services) and safety-focused organisations. When registering for access to such content, you may be required to provide details that verify your role or association with these communities.

StayWise.co.uk reserves the right to reject applications for access to restricted content if it is determined that the applicant does not meet the eligibility criteria.

Safeguarding

StayWise recognises the importance of safeguarding children, young people, and vulnerable individuals. We are committed to providing a safe, respectful, and inclusive online environment.

While this site does not actively collect or request information from children under the age of 13, we recommend that parents, carers, and educators supervise and guide internet use where children are accessing safety education materials.

Where interactive features are offered (e.g. forms or feedback), we do not knowingly collect personal data from children without appropriate consent. If you believe we have unintentionally received such information, please contact us immediately so we can remove it.

All our partner organisations are expected to follow safeguarding best practice in line with UK law and statutory guidance such as Working Together to Safeguard Children.

  • Minimising the amount of data collected
