EVOLUTION REENTRY PROGRAMS

A digital footprint – sometimes called a digital shadow or an electronic footprint – refers to the trail of data you leave when using the internet. It includes websites you visit, emails you send, and information you submit online. A digital footprint can be used to track a person’s online activities and devices. Internet users create their digital footprint either actively or passively. Often media is a huge part of your digital footprint when you are in the “spotlight”.

What is your Digital Footprint?

Whenever you use the internet, you leave behind a trail of information known as your digital footprint. A digital footprint grows in many ways – for example, posting on social media, subscribing to a newsletter, leaving an online review, or shopping online. It also grows from what others write about you, including media or press releases. When trying to rebuild your life after a felony conviction your digital footprint often is the barrier that is the cause of successful reentry.
