The Association of Sites Advocating Child Protection (ASACP) has designated AVN, AdultWebmasterNet, and LALExpo as its Featured Sponsors for March 2023. These companies are recognized for their commitment to corporate responsibility and ethical business practices within the digital media industry.

ASACP's March Featured Sponsors

ASACP, a nonprofit association, announced its Featured Sponsors for March 2023, identifying AVN, AdultWebmasterNet, and LALExpo. According to ASACP Executive Director Tim Henning, these sponsors are among the digital media industry's most respected companies. They demonstrate how corporate responsibility, ethical business practices, and technical measures can help protect minors and other sensitive users from accidental exposure to age-restricted materials online.

Henning stated that ASACP's family of sponsors highlights the industry's efforts to protect youth. He added that these market leaders work to safeguard children while improving the online experience for adults. ASACP's operations rely on the continued support of companies and organizations that take a proactive leadership role in protecting children from online harm.

ASACP provides various tools and resources, including free child protection resources, market-specific best practices, and a comprehensive code of ethics for app and age-restricted website publishers. A key achievement is its RTA (Restricted to Adults) meta-labeling system, designed to prevent children's access to adult-oriented web pages and apps. Additionally, ASACP operates a CP Reporting Tipline, which has processed over 1.25 million reports to date. These services are made possible through the support of sponsors like AVN, AdultWebmasterNet, and LALExpo.
