ASACP Honors Featured Sponsors for October

LOS ANGELES — The Association of Sites Advocating Child Protection (ASACP) has announced Fleshlight, Fubar Webmasters and YNOT as its Featured Sponsors for the month of October.

Each month, ASACP highlights a selection of companies that exhibit a strong commitment to corporate responsibility by keeping kids safer in their daily digital lives, through self-regulation and proactive measures that help prevent minors’ access to age-restricted materials.

ASACP’s Executive Director Tim Henning said the association’s Featured Sponsors show that adult entertainment and online child protection can easily coexist, and notes that “our Featured Sponsors not only do their part to protect children directly, but indirectly through their support of ASACP, demonstrating the comprehensiveness of their commitment.”

“ASACP provides the community and companies alike with the resources to protect children, such as its multiple award-winning Restricted To Adults (RTA) meta label, which prevents children’s access to billions of age-restricted web pages and mobile apps,” Henning explained. “Additionally, our formal Best Practices tailored to specific market segments and a universal Code of Ethics guides companies towards child-safe operation.

“Through self-regulation and proactive measures,” Henning added, “ASACP’s Featured Sponsors showcase the best of the industry, and reveal how serving the needs of adults does not have to come at the expense of protecting children.”

Fleshlight

Celebrating a decade of ASACP sponsorship in 2017, Fleshlight and its parent Interactive Life Forms, is an established leader in the field of sexual health and fulfillment, and serves as a positive example for other adult novelty companies to follow. On the forefront of the development of haptic devices, Fleshlight bridges traditional novelties with the newest technology, to bolster connections between people around the world.

According to Fleshlight, in an era where vibrators have been championed as a means for female sexual freedom and enjoyment, male sex products have remained something of a dirty, unwanted cousin to their female counterparts. By providing a high quality, discreet and tasteful product, the company hopes to help change these perceptions and to bring the topic of male sexuality into the public discourse — with a focus on providing adult novelties to adults only.

FUBAR Webmasters

An ASACP Corporate Sponsor since 2009, FUBAR Webmasters offers an online resource site for party, conference, convention and event pictures and news relating to adult website owners, operators, affiliates and service providers.

“It occurred to me that the [photos] might be of interest to people who didn’t make it to the shows for one reason or another,” said company owner JFK of his desire to educate and entertain those operators working in the adult entertainment industry. It is an educational process that helps promote the effort to protect children online, with JFK setting an example by using a warning page and rating meta tag on his website’s homepage, along with providing links to parental filtering and child protection tools.

YNOT Group

An ASACP Media Sponsor since 2016, the YNOT brand was founded in 1996, with a goal of providing website developers with a central hub where they could network and promote ethical business practices in what was then a largely lawless internet.

“YNOT has always applauded the efforts of ASACP to make the internet (and the industry) a safer place,” said YNOT Group, LLC co-owner Jay Kopita. “We are thoroughly pleased to make our support official and public.”

“From novelty technology to industry events, services and more, ASACP’s Featured Sponsors cover all segments of adult entertainment’s dynamic marketplace,” Henning concluded. “These professional organizations show they are legitimate companies, operating legally and with great care and concern for children. As such, they deserve the honor we bestow upon them.”
