Online Safety

Our website has a quick exit button "LEAVE WEBSITE NOW" in the top right hand corner. This button will close the DVNQ website and will open as a ABC news page.

The button may be useful if you're concerned that someone nearby could see you're on the DVNQ website. You may also want to delete your browser history to prevent others from viewing the websites you’ve visited. For more information on how to delete your browsing history click here.

If someone is monitoring your online activity using spyware, they may still be able to see that you have visited this website. If you are in danger, please try to use a safer computer that the abusive person does not have direct or remote (hacking) access to.

If you believe your home computer is being monitored, be cautious with how you use it. An abuser may become suspicious if you suddenly change your computer habits or delete your entire internet browsing history, especially if this is not something you usually do. It might be safer to continue using the monitored computer for harmless activities, such as checking the weather or reading the news. For more sensitive tasks—like researching an escape plan, looking for jobs or apartments, purchasing bus tickets, or seeking help—use a safer, unmonitored computer.
