ASACP Adds New Items To Best Practices
Los Angeles - (December 31, 2003) - ASACP added two items to the recommended Best Practices (http://www.asacp.org/bestpractices.html) and is asking the adult site industry to voluntarily comply. In addition to providing a hotline for surfers to report suspect child pornography, ASACP provides a self-regulatory vehicle for its membership. Through its enhanced Code of Ethics and responsible, professional business practices, the industry promotes the protection of children.
Even though the adult-related Spam only represented 14 percent of all Spam last month, people are incensed when they receive unsolicited adult-oriented emails. They get even more upset and vocal when children receive these emails. Therefore, ASACP recommends that companies that send legitimate e-marketing to label their materials as `ADV ADLT.` This will prevent children from unknowingly viewing adult material and is just a good business practice in today`s political climate, said Joan Irvine, executive director, ASACP.
New items added to recommended Best Practices
Label all e-marketing material with "ADV ADLT."
On Index (warning) page: include all disclaimers, age verification, etc and exclude images to prevent children from unknowingly viewing adult material.
ASACP is an organization helping the adult site industry make a difference in the battle against child pornography. Over 4700 sites that are taking a stand against child pornography proudly display the ASACP logo.
