The Association of Sites Advocating Child Protection (ASACP) is pleased to honor industry leaders Epoch, BongaCams, and AdultPrime as Featured Sponsors for February 2025.

ASACP is a nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting online child safety for 29 years and counting. The association proactively protects children from online harm by fostering corporate responsibility. It receives support from leading companies, organizations, and individuals, including its monthly honor roll of featured sponsors.

ASACP’s featured sponsors are highly regarded industry leaders recognized for their substantial contributions to corporate responsibility, ethical business practices, and implementing procedural and technical measures for child safety. These measures are designed to protect minors and other sensitive users from accidental exposure to age-restricted materials online and safeguard the innocence and safety of children as they live their daily digital lives.

ASACP’s Executive Director, Tim Henning, sincerely thanks Epoch, BongaCams, and AdultPrime for their unwavering support and acknowledges their contributions as being essential to the success of the association’s mission.

“We are incredibly grateful for our dedicated sponsors who play a vital role in shaping a safer future through online child protection. Their commitment to promoting age assurance helps preserve the innocence of our youth,” Henning expressed. “The tools our association freely provides wouldn’t be possible without their generous support. Together, we’re making a meaningful impact!”

These tools encompass free child protection resources for parents, Best Practices tailored to specific adult market segments, and a comprehensive Code of Ethics for all website and mobile app publishers. These vital resources help empower companies of all sizes to prevent minors from accessing age-restricted content.

Among ASACP’s most notable achievements are its RTA (Restricted To Adults) meta-labeling system, which prevents children from accessing adult-oriented web pages and apps, and its CP Reporting Tipline, which has received and processed more than 1.25 million reports since its inception and remains a vital global resource.

The association’s family of industry leaders, including February’s Featured Sponsors — Epoch, BongaCams, and AdultPrime — are crucial in making these tools accessible to the broader community.

Epoch

A founding Platinum Sponsor that has supported ASACP for over 20 years, Epoch is a payment facilitator that enables merchants to process transactions online and through mobile devices. It accepts global payments for digital products and services while earning a reputation for legitimacy and oversight of client web properties.

Epoch takes an active, two-pronged approach to child protection. First, it ensures that its services are not used by illegal websites selling materials depicting underage performers. Second, it selflessly provides dedicated service to the association’s Advisory Committee, which helps set responsible standards and practices for legitimate adult entertainment and other companies. Epoch also provides boardroom facilities for ASACP meetings and other tangible assets.

Epoch’s responsible corporate philosophy prioritizes the protection of children, exemplifying the type of industry-leading company that makes up ASACP’s most valued sponsors.

BongaCams

As a trusted ASACP Title Sponsor since 2016, the live adult cam platform BongaCams prioritizes the protection of children online.

“Since children might not only visit adult content websites but also attempt to become paid performers, we take extra care to ensure they do not receive this opportunity,” said a BongaCams spokesperson. “Our collaboration with ASACP is based on BongaCams’ aspiration to prevent child exploitation on the internet, and we do our best to secure their safety online.”

“BongaCams strictly prohibits streaming or uploading pedophilic content and takes on the obligation to contact relevant authorities if such activity is suspected. Thanks to ASACP’s support, the general public can report on any questionable content and thus minimize the spread of child pornography,” the spokesperson explained. “The service provided by ASACP is fully anonymous, so BongaCams’ visitors can feel safe reporting any suspicious videos — and therefore, the fight against child exploitation will be maximally effective.”

AdultPrime

The company behind AdultPrime has been in business since 1968 and knows the ins and outs of adult entertainment. AdultPrime is not your run-of-the-mill adult website, as it brings members numerous niches of exclusive content, including photos, videos, chat, and live cams, to satisfy their wildest fantasies.

With daily updates and the ability to stream or download videos across all devices, including desktop and laptop computers, tablets, smartphones, and TVs, AdultPrime gathers top content from more than 145 sites. Yet it costs less than $10 per month and imposes no limits, allowing adults full access whenever and wherever they want.

To help prevent minors from accessing the platform, AdultPrime features a warning page and employs ASACP’s Restricted To Adults meta-labeling system. The site also uses appropriate age verification tools to comply with various jurisdictions’ mandates.

ASACP sincerely thanks Epoch, BongaCams, and AdultPrime for their continued generosity and leadership in helping the association achieve its mission of keeping children out of and away from online content intended for adults only.

“Our sponsors provide more than just support to the association; they actively participate in shaping the industry and, most importantly, work tirelessly to ensure children’s online safety — a responsibility we all share,” Henning concluded. “The sponsors and members of ASACP are essential in creating a better environment for consenting adults while protecting the most vulnerable members of society. This is a noble and crucial mission that the association will continue to uphold and promote among all stakeholders in the industry as we move forward into the future.”
