LOS ANGELES—The Association of Sites Advocating Child Protection (ASACP) has named AVN, Gamma Entertainment, and LetsDoeIt! as its Featured Sponsors for March 2024.
ASACP is a nonprofit association that for nearly 28 years has relied on the support of a wide range of companies, organizations, and individuals willing to take a proactive leadership role in protecting children from online harm.
ASACP’s Featured Sponsors are highly respected leaders in the industry with diverse support services who have demonstrated corporate responsibility, ethical business practices, and the will to deploy technical measures that protect minors and sensitive users from accidental exposure to age-restricted materials online.
Executive director Tim Henning expressed his gratitude for the continued support from ASACP’s family of sponsors, adding that their help enables the organization to shape the future of online child protection, age verification, and adult access to age-restricted content.
ASACP’s sponsors provide guidance and support, making the association’s success possible. From free child protection resources for parents to its market-tailored Best Practices and a comprehensive Code of Ethics for adult app and website publishers, ASACP offers tools companies can use to prevent minors from accessing age-restricted content. At the top of ASACP’s achievements is its RTA (Restricted To Adults) meta-labeling system, which prevents children from accessing adult content, web pages, and apps, and its CP Reporting Tipline, which has processed more than 1.25 million reports.
AVN Media Network has been a Platinum Sponsor since 2002 as part of its long and generous history of support for ASACP and its noble mission. The company is the definitive source for adult entertainment news and information covering the evolution of this multibillion-dollar global industry.
AVN protects children from accessing adult-oriented material on its websites by utilizing RTA labeling as a protective measure. It has also been generous to the association financially and through material support, extending its hospitality at AVN events by providing advertising services, underwriting hotel accommodations, and participating in ASACP’s Advisory Council.
Gamma Entertainment has been an ASACP Corporate Sponsor that has supported the association since 2006. Montreal-based Gamma Entertainment illustrates the commitment the adult entertainment industry’s most prominent players make towards keeping children out of and away from adult entertainment, ASACP wrote in its announcement.
Spearheaded by its flagship website at Gammae.com, Gamma has grown from a home-based business with a single site to become a significant force in the adult industry. Gamma attributes its growth to cutting-edge technology and adherence to four basic principles: honesty, respect, reliability, and an up-front way of doing business, as the basis of its ongoing success.
Gamma also uses the RTA website meta-label to protect its sites and donate rack space for two ASACP-owned servers in the secure Gamma data center, providing vital technical and financial support for the association.
LetsDoeIt is an adult-oriented paysite network that provides content to adults only and is a supporter and advocate of the need for child protection protocols. The company is also a patron of the child protection initiative by being one of Europe’s pioneers of age verification. Amidst all the recent changes, LetsDoeIt helps ensure that major players in the adult industry move simultaneously to address the rapidly growing changes the web has thrust upon society, affecting children and minors now more than ever.
The company also uses an age warning page and the RTA meta-label code to prevent minors’ unauthorized access to its flagship website. In addition, it employs special measures and policies to ensure that LetsDoeIt only displays legal content. These practices also apply to the newest addition to the company’s portfolio of websites, Superbe.com, a non-sexually driven product focusing on sophisticated erotic art.
“Even more than being just legal, the most important role of the adult industry is to protect children from a problem that still haunts us today: child pornography and abuse,” said Phil, COO of LetsDoeIt Network and Superbe. “LetsDoeIt and Superbe only work with adult companies and producers who share this important viewpoint and cooperate against this serious matter.”
Unlike some competitors, LetsDoeIt does not allow user uploads and only operates with legally licensed content.
“LetsDoeIt and Superbe will continue fighting for this cause,” Phil continued. “We will continue working closely with all our partners, including legislative officials, to ensure we are one step ahead and lead by example for others to follow.”
“ASACP would like to thank AVN, Gamma Entertainment, and LetsDoeIt! for their unwavering support, generosity, and leadership in supporting the association’s mission to prevent children from accessing adult-oriented content,” Henning concluded, stating that ASACP sponsors are helping the association build a better world for consenting adults and society’s most vulnerable members. “This is an honorable mission that the association will continue to embrace.”
