After going through the regular technical issues of the customers at Dell Technical Support Phone Number, it was noticed that most of them arise when online privacy is compromised.

Here are 4 ways to stay away from such mishaps.

1) Do not reveal personal information inadvertently.

More often than not, people give out information about themselves without even wanting to.  Prevent this from happening by-

·         Using a pseudonym in place of your identifiable real name for browser settings

·         Giving an email id that you least use for the website that you have to use but do not trust enough

·         Tweaking Internet defaults to make it look anonymous removing every bit of personal information

·         Setting clear rules for children as to what to do and what not

2) Have different email accounts for categorically different activities

Managing emails can be very challenging when you read a lot online and subscribe to the newsletters of every site that interests you. Some ideas are-

·         Make an email account which is completely unrelated to the one used for trustworthy tasks and use it for posting to newsgroups, mailing lists, chat rooms and other public spaces; mailing to unknown parties; or publishing a web page that mentions your e-mail address,.

·         Use your main or preferred address only on small, members-only lists and with known, trusted individuals.

3) Turn on cookie notices in your Web browser, and/or use cookie management software or infomediaries.

You should never overlook cookies, which websites store on your system to use them to better understand your Internet habits. These could be passwords and user IDs, activity-trackers used for marketing purposes, etc. Lately, they were exploited through cookie sharing rings. Save yourself getting exposed through cookies intelligently by-

·         Changing browser settings, which makes you are when a cookie is being planted an sent to third-party

·         Using software (called infomediaries) that disguise your location and your identity by creating a shield

·         Employing software to delete cookies along with other accumulated files routinely

4) Avoid using personal Internet activities in office

Use personal email only on your system to send mails to the mailing lists, and keep sensitive/confidential files on your PC, Printers. Employees are generally monitored for what they do online while in office. So, beware of doing anything that might appear as if negatively impacting general interest of the company. Also-

·         Try to be certain whom you are interacting with while discussing sensitive matters.

·         Take care as to who reads the confidential email you are sending.

·         Post comment on blogs or other online media after ensuring that you are doing nothing against the common interest.

·         Reply emails only after noticing that you want to send it to everyone in To and Cc.

Due to information as given above and more, Dell customer reviews often are full of appreciation. We will try to bring more on this subject.
