LOS ANGELES—The Association of Sites Advocating Child Protection (ASACP) has honored A.W.Empire, iWantClips, and Latin American Livecams Expo as its Featured Sponsors for December 2023.
ASACP’s Featured Sponsors rank among the digital media industry’s most respected operators. 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, organizations, and individuals willing to assume a proactive leadership role in the fight to protect the innocence of children from online harm.
Said ASACP executive director Tim Henning, "Especially now during this season of giving and gratitude, ASACP appreciates the support it receives from its family of sponsors. While a wave of worldwide proposals to restrict access to adult-oriented content, and moves for mandatory age verification, makes it essential for the industry to stand together, our strength is rooted in sensitivity, and a desire to do the right thing by protecting the innocence of youth. This is an impossible task without the help and ongoing financial support of our sponsors, whom we thank."
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 preventing children from accessing adult-oriented web pages and apps; and its CP Reporting Tipline, which has processed more than 1.25 million reports and continues today as a vital global resource.
As with all ASACP services, these tools are available thanks to the generosity of the association’s valued sponsors, including December’s Featured Sponsors — A.W.Empire, iWantClips, and Latin American Livecams Expo.
A.W.Empire
A Platinum Sponsor supporting ASACP since 2008, Byborg Enterprises, known for its LiveJasmin brand, unites millions of users from around the globe via its live cam and chat platforms. Because of the unique nature of live cam services, the company takes its responsibilities very seriously by preventing children from accessing its sites while ensuring its cam models are of legal age.
This process starts with proactively using a warning overlay that alerts visitors that age-restricted content is ahead. Next, the company adds legally required age verification solutions in coordination with relevant authorities.
To ensure they meet the minimum age requirements for performers, individuals who register as live cam models on LiveJasmin.com or associated sites are subject to a rigorous screening process. The company also implements extensive measures to constantly monitor its live content as an additional proactive step for protecting minors.
According to AWEmpire.com CEO and co-founder Karoly Papp, the company needs to be associated with ASACP and support its team’s mission of protecting children.
Papp explained, "Implementing robust safeguards to protect younger generations is a top priority for us. As a leader and trusted name in the webcam industry, we understand our social responsibility to lead by example and make a positive impact. Our ongoing support for ASACP emphasizes our dedication to leading the way in consumer-friendly practices."
iWantClips
An online portal that unites amateur, fetish, and professional content producers with fans of female domination and financial domination content, which puts it on the frontline of the need for online child protection.
Said a spokesperson for iWantClips, "We are pleased to support ASACP. Our pledge to be an annual Corporate Sponsor affirms our commitment to keeping age-restricted content away from children."
As part of this effort, iWantClips features an adult content warning pop-up and resources for parents who take an active role in keeping their children safe online.
Latin American Livecams Expo
An Official ASACP Media Sponsor since 2017, the Latin American Livecams Expo (formerly LALExpo) targets the vibrant Latin American market, attracting a growing international and Latin-American audience from companies representing all aspects of the online and adult business world. Because the Latin American Livecams Expo is a business-to-business, education, and trade event, the general public is not permitted to attend. However, a diverse range of companies from the billing, mobile tech, ad network, affiliate sector, and more are in attendance. This executive event is capped by the Latin American Livecams Expo Awards, honoring excellence across dozens of industry categories and market segments.
Said a spokesperson for iWantClips, "Colombia has emerged as a vibrant center of the global camming community and broader digital media market. Latin American Livecams Expo’s goal has always been to promote excellence and responsibility among the companies in this space."
Anthony Rivera, an organizer of the event and co-founder of AJ Studios, said, "Our roots are in the camming community, and we serve these countless independent performers, providing an opportunity for all adults who wish to make a living and support their families and themselves through today’s technology."
Rivera added, "Of course, with this opportunity comes a great responsibility to do the right thing and to help ensure that only those who are legally able to enjoy camming and other adult entrepreneurial activities are doing so. This is why we support ASACP and its mission to educate and professionalize the industry in the name of protecting children, as well as restrict attendance at our event to adult business professionals only."
Henning concluded, "ASACP thanks A.W.Empire, iWantClips, and Latin American Livecams Expo for their commitment, generosity, and leadership in supporting the association and its mission to keep children out of and away from adult-oriented content. ASACP’s sponsors are building a better future for the industry and society’s most vulnerable members. We thank them for this and encourage others to help support our continuing efforts on behalf of society’s most vulnerable members."
