TANGO

Picture
TANGO
MINIMUM AGE: 16+
 
WHAT IS IT?
Social live streaming community - "Go Live & Make Friends on Live Video Chat". Tango is a social 'live' community app with over 400 million people around the world!

"On Tango everyone is always live and only live!"

WHAT WE SAY:
Treat with caution.

Watch live streams and chat with broadcasters:
  • Users can view broadcasts streaming 24 hours a day. Adults need to consider  appropriate 'screen-time' usage for children and young people to get a healthy balance for the child's mental wellbeing. 
Voice and video chat rooms:
  • There are public and private chat rooms. 
  • Users can send gifts to their favourite streamers. 
  • Broadcasters can now send gifts to others in Live Party!
  • There is a “find friends nearby” feature that uses location services to find other Tango users near you. This is 'Fiesta by Tango'. This feature is 18+. It says "THE place to make new friends - near you or across the globe". 
  • By default, your profile is public​.
Tango's Instant Translation Feature
  • This feature enables users to communicate with anyone around the world. This could be really positive if used in the right way. However, it also means talking to strangers is more accessible. 
SAFETY TIPS TO CONSIDER:
  • You can set your profile to Private and you can turn off location services. To find out how access this link.
  • Group chats can be used to bully people - ask children and young people to share their concerns on and offline with adults they trust. 
  • Live video can have dangers with sharing location - personal information could be shared​. 
  • Users are able to search for local members - talk to children and young people about the dangers of chatting to strangers nearby.
  • Discuss 'friends' - there is no such thing as 'internet friends'. Encourage children and young people to only chat with people their parents or carers know and trust in the 'real-world'. 
  • ​Live videos can receive responses which can mean that inappropriate content can be sent - ask children and young people to tell you if anything goes wrong​.
  • Also make sure they use their device in a room whereby adults at home are present.
  • Have open discussions with children and young people about the topics associated with online use - bullying, grooming, sexual and criminal exploitation, body image, as well as accessing support and how to report. 

FURTHER SUPPORT:
For parents/ carers If you're worried about your child or need support call NSPCC helpline on 0808 800 5000. 

If you discover criminal content when online then report it directly to the police or the Internet Watch Foundation. 

If you're worried about online grooming or sexual behaviour online then report directly to the police or contact CEOP. 

For Children & young people 
if they're worried or want to talk, encourage them to contact Childline Online or call 0800 1111.

Resource Centre for further information and useful online safety tips.
