LOS ANGELES (July 2, 2024) — The Association of Sites Advocating Child Protection (ASACP) is thrilled to announce that the premium social platform Friends2Follow (F2F.com) has become our newest Title Sponsor.

This is a significant milestone in our shared mission to protect children online. The elevation in support status comes a year after F2F.com joined the association as a Corporate Sponsor.

As a non-profit organization, ASACP’s sponsors and members are among the industry’s most respected companies. These sponsors are excellent examples of how corporate responsibility, ethical operation, and basic proactive measures are crucial in protecting minors and other sensitive viewer groups from accidental exposure to age-restricted materials.

ASACP’s newest Title Sponsor, F2F.com, is a premium social platform designed to reinvent creator and fan engagement.

“Our ambition is to offer an exceptionally innovative social media website with superior features found nowhere else,” said Jean-Micheal Veen, Managing Director of F2F.com, explaining that “it is vital that we do not forget the needs of children’s online safety in this fast-growing industry.”

“As a rapidly growing fan engagement platform, it’s imperative that we support the commitment to protecting children and the fight against exploitation,” Veen added. “Our cooperation with ASACP and its massive knowledge base gives us the trust and confidence that we can fight against CE sites.”

ASACP Executive Director Tim Henning said that the association relies on the continuing support from companies such as F2F.com, which are willing to assume a leadership role in the fight to keep children out of and away from adult-oriented materials.

“ASACP’s global family of sponsors take a forward-leaning leadership stance by doing the right thing and taking tangible action,” Henning said. “By supporting the association and its initiatives, our sponsors share in our decades-long success at improving the safety of children’s daily digital lives.”

“F2F.com is stepping up at a key time in the growth of the association, as the platform reaches out to help serve the needs of content creators — something that ASACP does with its new Content Creator membership level,” Henning added. “Our industry is evolving, and ASACP is here to help guide the way.”

ASACP sponsors such as F2F.com make the association’s 28-year record of success possible by underwriting its free resources, including market-specific Best Practices and a comprehensive Code of Ethics for businesses, app publishers, and all operators of age-restricted websites.

At the pinnacle of ASACP’s achievements is its RTA (Restricted To Adults) meta-labeling system that helps parents prevent their children’s access to adult-oriented web pages and mobile apps. In addition, the CP Reporting Tipline has earned global accolades for processing more than 1.25 million user reports to date. As with all of ASACP’s online child protection services, these tools are free of charge, thanks to the generosity of the association’s sponsors.

“ASACP is grateful to F2F.com for its commitment to the association by stepping up as our newest Title Sponsor, underscoring its growing leadership in the marketplace,” Henning concluded. “We encourage other brands to follow F2F.com’s example in sponsoring the association and empowering our shared mission to boost child safety.”
