It is that time again, when I dedicate a little time and space on PimpsPromo to discuss the Association of Sites Advocating Child Protection (ASACP) and Restricted to Adults (RTA). I am sure that any adult webmaster or program owner that has been around for longer than six months has heard of ASACP; but how many are actually supporting ASACP or using the RTA label to help parents that are using filtering software to keep their minor children off your porn website?

Founded in 1996, the ASACP is a non-profit organization established with the lofty goal of eliminating child pornography on the Internet. To assist in achieving this goal, the ASACP has established an international online reporting hotline for both surfers and adult webmasters to report suspected child pornography; they have created a Code of Ethics and Best Practices for adult sites, search engines, billing and hosting companies and others. In addition, ASACP developed the RTA label to enable parental filtering software, and they do their best to keep members and others in the adult community aware of current, new and pending laws dealing with child protection.

As announced a few weeks ago, PimpsPromo.com is now a corporate sponsor of ASACP. As such, I will be notifying you of special events targeting a safer Internet for children. You may also notice that I will encourage you to either join ASACP or at least donate a few dollars if you believe in the cause of keeping the Internet safe for children.

That being said, on February 8, 2011 the ASACP Foundation is holding an online fundraiser in an effort to gather donations to enable them to continue its online child protection mission. These donations help the ASACP develop the RTA labeling and filtering software to work with applications for such mobile devices as the Android.

As was announced at the end of December, PimpsPromo.com is now a Corporate Sponsor of the ASACP. This was not a decision that was reached without some thought. This year I plan on making PimpsPromo more popular than ever. When I look through my server stats, it is obvious that this site is being viewed by many surfers as well as webmasters. This is due, most likely, to the fact that I do cover events like XFANZ and FreeOne’s parties along with adult webmaster B-to-B events, and because of the high search engine rankings earned by PimpsPromo. As a result, I felt an obligation to support ASACP more than I have in the past.

Protect Children

For years, I have been reading on webmaster forums that it is the parent’s responsibility to monitor and restrict their children’s access to adult content on the Internet. While ASACP may be known primarily as somewhere to report child pornography on the Internet, they are more than that. They also created the RTA (Restricted to Adults) Label to help parents that utilize parental filtering software. (more…)
