ASACP Honors XBIZ, SkyPrivate.com, VerifyMy as Featured Sponsors for December

LOS ANGELES (Dec. 1, 2022) — ASACP, the Association of Sites Advocating Child Protection, is pleased to name XBIZ, SkyPrivate.com, and VerifyMy as Featured Sponsors for December 2022.

ASACP’s Featured Sponsors rank among the digital media industry’s most respected companies. These industry leaders demonstrate how corporate responsibility, ethical business practices, and several simple technical measures can help protect minors and other sensitive users from accidental exposure to age-restricted materials online.

As a nonprofit association, ASACP relies on the continued support of the companies and organizations willing to assume a proactive leadership role in the fight to protect children from online harm.

“ASACP’s diverse family of sponsors reflects the wide range of entities that support our efforts to protect the innocence of youth,” said ASACP Executive Director Tim Henning. “These notable industry leaders work together to safeguard children and to improve the enjoyment and safety of internet surfing for everyone.”

ASACP’s ongoing successes are made possible by its sponsors’ generous guidance and support. From free child protection resources to market-specific Best Practices, and a comprehensive Code of Ethics for app and age-restricted website publishers, ASACP provides the tools that companies need to keep minors out of and away from age-restricted content. Positioned at the pinnacle of ASACP’s achievements is its RTA (Restricted To Adults) meta-labeling system that prevents children’s access to adult-oriented web pages and apps; and its CP Reporting Tipline, which has processed more than 1 million reports to date.

As with all ASACP services, these tools are accessible to publishers thanks to the generosity of its sponsors, including December’s Featured Sponsors — XBIZ, SkyPrivate.com, and VerifyMy.

XBIZ

A founding Platinum Sponsor since 2002, XBIZ has enjoyed a long and vital relationship with ASACP, with Alec Helmy founding both organizations.

XBIZ is the industry source for news and information, providing up-to-the-minute coverage of the latest in adult entertainment at XBIZ.com and in two monthly print publications — XBIZ World for the digital media market and XBIZ Premiere for the retail and intimate products markets. In addition, XBIZ hosts multiple annual events in Los Angeles, Miami, and Berlin, including the prestigious red-carpet gala XBIZ Awards, XBIZ Cam Awards, XBIZ Europa Awards, and XBIZ Exec Awards.

With its broad experience of the industry’s issues, XBIZ helps spearhead efforts to protect children online, underscoring the need to keep minors out of and away from adult-oriented content, products, and services by promoting corporate responsibility and proactive business practices.

SkyPrivate.com

According to SkyPrivate, the company enables its members to engage in live one-on-one Skype calls with their favorite webcam models, regardless of their sexual orientation or fetishes. SkyPrivate is a premium platform that limits its services to registered users of legal age, providing a secure option for adult models seeking to interact with their fans, anytime, anywhere; with flexible payouts and scheduling, encryption of text, and video calls to enhance privacy, and other special features.

“SkyPrivate unites fans and models, both of which must be of legal age,” said Alex of SkyPrivate. “As a company, we must do our best to ensure that all users of our platform are of legal age — and we rely on ASACP to guide our way in this effort.”

“We’re proud to become Corporate Sponsors of this vital association,” Alex added, “because online child protection is a mission we should all embrace and support.”

VerifyMy

VerifyMy, the Google for Startups-backed safety-tech provider, has a mission to make the Internet a safer place via their VerifyMyAge and VerifyMyContent safety-tech solutions designed to deliver the best consumer experience without compromising the needs of the business.

VerifyMyAge is a global leader in age assurance technology, safeguarding children by providing frictionless and secure age verification and age estimation solutions for online products and services.

VerifyMyContent enables user-generated content platforms to provide a safe environment for creators, participants, and consumers of audiovisual content by utilizing a complex ecosystem of technologies to prohibit the publication of harmful and/or illegal content.

“As an industry-leading safety tech provider, VerifyMy has undertaken many projects and entered into multiple partnerships to provide financial support, technical advice, and coordinate global lobbying efforts,” said Gavin Worrall, VP of Global Strategic Partnerships. “The work conducted by ASACP fits well with our mission to help make the internet safer for children.”

“We are pleased to be part of the solution,” Worrall added, “and look forward to helping members of the association and the wider adult community.”

“ASACP appreciates XBIZ, SkyPrivate.com, and VerifyMy for their commitment, generosity, and leadership in supporting the association and its mission to keep children out of and away from adult-oriented content,” Henning concluded. “ASACP’s sponsors are united in building a better future for the industry and society’s most vulnerable members. We thank them for this and encourage others to join our crusade on behalf of the children.”
