How does safe search work?

Safe Search helps you ensure that your users are always displayed safe search results and protected from age-inappropriate content and images. You can enforce safe search for your students’ devices for all searches on Google and Bing search engines. 

You can enable safe search for individual policies depending upon the users or OUs assigned to the policy. To do this, navigate to the Policy Editor page in your Securly admin portal and select the policy you want to enable safe search for. Toggle the button for the “Lock Safe Search Modes” field. 

You can also enforce safe search for Chromebooks via your Google Workspace account. To learn how click here. Note that Google Workspace settings are applicable only for Google searches and your Bing searches will be left unlocked if you do not enable safe search from the Securly admin portal.
