The Association of Sites Advocating Child Protection (ASACP) is pleased to honor industry leaders CAM4, iWantClips, and Pineapple Support as its Featured Sponsors for November 2024.

ASACP is a nonprofit organization with a 28-year history dedicated to promoting online child safety. The association is committed to protecting children from online harm with the support of numerous companies, organizations, and individuals.

ASACP’s featured sponsors are highly regarded industry leaders recognized for their substantial contributions to corporate responsibility, ethical business practices, and implementing technical measures for child safety. These measures are designed to protect minors and sensitive users from accidental exposure to age-restricted materials online and safeguard the innocence and safety of children as they live their daily digital lives.

Executive Director Tim Henning sincerely thanks CAM4, iWantClips, and Pineapple Support for their unwavering support and acknowledges that their contributions are greatly appreciated and essential to the success of ASACP’s mission.

“The crucial role of the association’s sponsors in shaping the future of online child protection, particularly in promoting age verification to safeguard the innocence of young people, is commendable and greatly appreciated,” Henning said. “The tools provided by ASACP, made possible by our sponsors’ support, are not just beneficial; they are invaluable.”

These tools include free child protection resources for parents, Best Practices tailored to specific market segments, and a comprehensive Code of Ethics for adult website and mobile app publishers. These vital resources empower companies to proactively prevent minors from accessing age-restricted content.

Among ASACP’s most notable achievements are its RTA (Restricted To Adults) meta-labeling system, which prevents children from accessing adult-oriented web pages and apps, and its CP Reporting Tipline, which has processed over 1.25 million reports since its inception and remains a vital global resource.

The association’s invaluable sponsors, including November’s Featured Sponsors — CAM4, iWantClips, and Pineapple Support — are crucial in making these tools available to the broader community for free.

CAM4

As a longstanding Title Sponsor and Advisory Council Member of ASACP since 2012, CAM4.com is committed to robust online child protection. Our vigilance in safeguarding minors extends across our webcam live functionalities and online content, ensuring that underage individuals cannot access these platforms or misrepresent their age to become paid creators.

The global scope of our business — requiring a range of rigorous documentation standards across jurisdictions — demands that we maintain a clear separation between the company and content creators, ensuring that all participants and viewers are of verified legal age. Recognizing online platforms’ unique challenges, we follow ASACP’s stringent guidelines and best practices designed for live cam site operators. CAM4 integrates these measures proactively, reinforcing a comprehensive approach to child safety.

Additional safeguards, such as RTA labeling and warning page alerts, further block minors from accessing our site, underscoring our commitment to a safe, compliant environment. Our message to users is clear: CAM4 prohibits and actively reports any CP activity to authorities, with full cooperation in prosecution. This zero-tolerance stance reaffirms our dedication to protecting minors and upholding the highest digital safety and responsibility standards.
