Google Safe Search: Child protection in Google search
- Google Safe Search is a function that filters the search results of the search engine according to certain rules so that content that is harmful to young people is not displayed.
- The main purpose of Safe Search is to prevent children from accidentally using Google search to find adult websites.
- This does not hide websites with such content, but also websites that link to them.
- You can activate the function by ticking the "Filter inappropriate results" item on this website.
- Attention: If you delete the cookies in the browser, the setting will be lost and must be set again.
- Conclusion: Of course, the function cannot guarantee one hundred percent that all youth-endangering content disappears from the search results. However, you should definitely activate this function if your children also use the computer.
We also recommend that you install a child protection program on your computer. You can find the best programs in this practical tip.
