ASACP Announces Lion's Den, Kate's Tube, AWSummit as 'Featured Sponsors' for September

LOS ANGELES — The Association of Sites Advocating Child Protection (ASACP) has named Lion's Den, Kate's Tube, and AWSummit as "Featured Sponsors" for September 2025.

ASACP is a nonprofit organization with a 29-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 executive director, Tim Henning, thanked Lion's Den, Kate's Tube, and AWSummit for their ongoing support and contributions in establishing a safer future.

"Our sponsors' dedication to age assurance helps protect the innocence of youth," he said. "The free tools, education, and outreach ASACP provides wouldn’t be possible without their generous support. Together, we’re making a real difference."

These are the ASACP descriptions for this month's sponsors:

Lion's Den

Lion's Den has been a proud Title Sponsor of ASACP since 2006, underscoring its longstanding commitment to protecting children from exploitation and shielding minors from inappropriate adult content. Since its beginnings in 1971 in Columbus, Ohio, Lion’s Den has built a reputation as a trusted provider of adult toys, lingerie, massage oils, and intimacy resources — offering a secure, responsible, and stigma-free shopping experience both in-store and online at LionsDen.com.

Beyond retail, Lion's Den is deeply engaged in the communities it serves. The company partners with colleges and universities nationwide to support sexual health education, works alongside organizations raising awareness for ovarian and testicular cancer, and collaborates with nonprofits combating human trafficking. Lion’s Den also proudly supports free speech and social acceptance campaigns, helping dismantle stigma and empower individuals to embrace intimacy and wellness with confidence.

"We are honored to support ASACP’s mission of protecting children from exploitation," said Lion’s Den CEO Michael Moran. "Community engagement, education, and responsibility are at the heart of who we are — and we’re proud to stand alongside ASACP in shaping a safer and more accountable industry."

Kate’s Tube

Since 2019, KatesTube.com has proudly stood as a Corporate Sponsor of ASACP — a partnership that reflects the company’s commitment to fostering a safer, more responsible internet for everyone.

"We’re proud to support ASACP in their mission to keep the internet a safer place for children and a cleaner, more trustworthy space for adults," said a company spokesperson. "Although we don't produce content ourselves, we take site oversight seriously. Our team regularly reviews the platform to ensure full compliance with legal requirements, including 18 U.S. Code § 2257."

The company emphasizes its ongoing dedication to safety, transparency, and ethical operation across its entire network. In recent years, Kate’s Tube has expanded its internal resources to bolster security, elevate content standards, and stay ahead of evolving industry regulations.

"Our goal is to set a higher standard — not just for our own site, but across the adult industry as a whole," the spokesperson added. "We believe a clean, secure, and well-managed platform benefits everyone — users, partners, and the broader online community."

By deepening its support for ASACP, Kate’s Tube hopes to lead by example and inspire other adult platforms to take meaningful action.

"We encourage our peers in the adult industry to join us in supporting organizations like ASACP," the spokesperson concluded. "Together, we can continue making a real impact when it comes to online child protection and ethical content practices."

AWSummit

ASACP’s newest In-Kind Media Sponsor, AWSummit, is a leading conference for affiliates and creators that transforms opportunities into success. Having organized top-tier B2B conferences, international side events, and custom corporate events since 2014, AWSummit has a proven track record.

Specializing in designing high-impact experiences that help businesses expand their networks to achieve growth, AWSummit has attracted over 20,000 industry professionals in the past decade, helping close thousands of deals that have driven millions in revenue growth. Designed as a hub for sharing ideas, knowledge, and building business relationships over three days, AWSummit offers keynote speeches, workshops, mastermind sessions, an expo, and networking events. Its next event is scheduled for September 8-10 in Bucharest.

"At AWSummit, you can share and get knowledge from top affiliates about the challenges and solutions related to different traffic sources, and find new ways to optimize and scale your affiliate business," said an event spokesperson. "While as a content creator, you’ll have the opportunity to exchange experiences with other models and influencers, discover the best platforms for collaboration, and explore new ways to monetize your content."

"ASACP’s sponsors and members are essential in creating a safer environment for consenting adults, while also protecting society’s most vulnerable individuals from online harm," Henning added. "The association’s family of industry leaders, including September’s Featured Sponsors, is crucial in making our tools and services accessible to the broader community. Such vital resources help empower companies of all sizes to prevent minors from accessing age-restricted content."
