LOS ANGELES (September 30, 2021) — ASACP, the Association of Sites Advocating Child Protection, is pleased to announce that PleazeMe has become its newest Corporate Sponsor.

ASACP’s sponsors and members are among the industry’s most respected companies and serve as excellent examples of how corporate responsibility, ethical operation, and basic proactive measures all help to protect minors and other online viewers from accidental exposure to age-restricted materials.

According to the company, PleazeMe is a private online space for adults looking to explore and discover their sexual desires and interests with others in seven different erotic “worlds” — soft and sensual or edgy and experimental — men, women, trans, gay, straight, bi, pansexual, demisexual, curious… all are welcome and included. PleazeMe’s platform offers many of the same features found in popular social media apps, including GIF, video, and text sharing, user feed posting, commenting and “Heart” button functionality, friend suggestions, private messaging, user followers, and name linking.

All of PleazeMe’s communities are open for discussion about sex and sexuality without fearing censorship or banned keywords. PleazeMe is building content to improve users’ sex lives and relationships, keep them up-to-date on sexy events and sensual travel destinations, and soon, content creators tools that provide paid membership content and edutainment content.

PleazeMe is committed to those who choose to be accountable for moving the love, joy, and bliss dial towards a more fulfilling life — and having the freedom and security to be more expressive, without judgment, while dating or in a relationship. PleazeMe is an efficient, solution-driven community platform providing the personalized tools and education to safely explore a satisfying sexual journey towards an exchange that is good for you and good for the world. PleazeMe holds the highest standards in healthy, loving, and compassionate human relationships, while an increased awareness of inner personal peace, happiness, and compassion manifests into healthy and thriving communities.

Founder and CEO Heather C. Montgomery created PleazeMe to challenge the status quo as it relates to the way people treat sex in life and as well as society, especially for women.

“Healthy relationships with ourselves, with others, and with sexuality increases our quality of life,” Montgomery said. “I think many people are ready and looking for greater quality in their lives.”

“PleazeMe’s goal is to create the gold standard of child internet safety for sites that support our need for sexual wellness, edutainment, and pleasure,” Montgomery explained. “We are dedicated to keeping children off our platform and taking every measure possible to keep all CSAM and nonconsensual crimes and materials away from this incredibly important resource for us all.”

“We believe there is a way to support healthy adult sexuality in a manner that doesn't put children and victimized people at risk,” Montgomery added. “We are grateful for all the work the ASACP has done to lift and support this mission for the last 25 years and honored to be sponsoring such an important non-profit organization in our industry and the world.”

ASACP Executive Director Tim Henning welcomed PleazeMe and its desire to take on a leadership role in the nonprofit association and its fight to keep children out of and away from adult-oriented materials. 

“ASACP’s sponsors sustain and share in the credit for the association’s success in bettering the safety of children’s daily digital lives,” Henning said. “As a company that reaches out to adult audiences, PleazeMe is on the frontline of the need for online child protection, so we are grateful that they are joining us in our mission.”

ASACP sponsors such as PleazeMe empower the association and its 25-year record of success by underwriting its free child protection resources, including market-specific Best Practices and a comprehensive Code of Ethics for businesses, app publishers, and all operators of age-restricted websites.

Crowning ASACP’s achievements are its RTA (Restricted To Adults) meta-labeling system that helps parents prevent children’s access to adult-oriented webpages and mobile apps; and its CP Reporting Tipline, which has earned global accolades for processing more than 1 million user reports to date. As with all of ASACP’s services, these tools are provided free of charge, thanks to the generosity of its family of sponsors.

“ASACP is grateful to PleazeMe for its commitment to child protection,” Henning concluded. “We encourage other brands to step up and follow PleazeMe’s lead in sponsoring our association and our mission to improve online child safety and look forward to the positive impact that the PleazeMe community will have in this valiant fight.”
