The Association of Sites Advocating Child Protection (ASACP) has designated CAM4, AgeChecked, and Cosmo Payment as its featured sponsors for November. This announcement, made on November 3, 2026, highlights the ongoing commitment of these companies to online child protection within the adult industry.

ASACP's November Featured Sponsors

ASACP's Executive Director Tim Henning stated that the organization's sponsors are among the industry’s most respected companies. He noted that these sponsors exemplify corporate responsibility and ethical business practices. Henning also highlighted that simple technical measures can help protect minors and other sensitive users from accidental exposure to age-restricted materials online.

Henning further explained that the continuing commitment of ASACP's sponsors helps safeguard the innocence of youth. He added that, together, they are creating a brighter future for children on the internet. Henning concluded that ASACP’s sponsors are vital for fostering a safer environment for consenting adults while protecting society’s most vulnerable from online harms. He expressed appreciation for the sponsors' contribution to establishing industry standards and safeguarding children online, stating that working together builds a better world.

ASACP provides free child protection resources to parents, best practices tailored to individual market segments, and a comprehensive code of ethics for publishers of adult websites and apps. These tools help companies prevent minors from accessing age-restricted content. One of ASACP’s achievements is its RTA (Restricted To Adults) meta-labeling system, which prevents children from accessing adult-oriented web pages and apps. The organization's CP Reporting Tipline has processed over 1.25 million reports.

Sponsor Profiles

CAM4

CAM4.com has been a Title Sponsor and Advisory Council Member of ASACP since 2012. The company is committed to robust online child protection, extending its vigilance across its live webcam functionalities and online content. CAM4 ensures that underage individuals cannot access its platforms or misrepresent their age to become paid creators.

CAM4’s global scope necessitates rigorous documentation standards across jurisdictions, a clear separation between the company and content creators, and verification that all participants and viewers are of legal age. Recognizing the unique challenges of its online platforms, CAM4 follows ASACP’s stringent guidelines and best practices designed for live cam site operators. The company integrates these measures proactively, reinforcing a comprehensive approach to child safety. Additional safeguards, such as RTA labeling and warning-page alerts, further block minors from accessing the site.

A company representative stated that CAM4 prohibits and actively reports any CSAM activity to authorities, with full cooperation in prosecution. This stance, according to the representative, reaffirms CAM4’s dedication to protecting minors and upholding digital safety and responsibility standards.

AgeChecked

AgeChecked has been an ASACP Corporate Sponsor since 2017, supporting clients with age verification since 2014. The company provides age verification, authentication, and screening services built specifically for adult content platforms. Its service helps platforms confirm a user’s age quickly and securely, in line with the regulations in each market they serve.

AgeChecked’s verification is privacy-first, meaning personal data is not exposed to or retained by the platform. A single integration offers access to verification methods across multiple jurisdictions, and the user journey is designed to minimize friction and protect conversion rates. The AgeChecked team works with clients’ payment processors, developers, and management to streamline onboarding. The company also advises on practical questions platforms face, such as how verification affects rebills for recurring customers and how to roll it out across a large network of sites.

AgeChecked is an active participant in AgeAware, a three-year EU and UN-funded initiative led by euCONSENT. This initiative aims to build a privacy-preserving, “integrate once, use everywhere” age assurance network, with engagement from the EU, ITU, and ISO. AgeChecked offers free consultations in any time zone.

Cosmo Payment

Cosmo Payment, with the tagline “the industry’s best way to pay and get paid,” offers payout solutions designed to help online businesses send funds to a global network of companies and creators. The company has been an ASACP Corporate Sponsor since 2025.

These cards allow cardholders to access funds for online shopping, point-of-sale purchases, or ATM withdrawals.

Cosmo Payment collaborates with issuing and processing partners within relevant regulatory frameworks and prioritizes adherence to standard compliance practices, including KYC/AML screening and data security measures. For recipients, a card-focused approach can reduce the time from payment approval to funds being available compared to traditional cross-border transfers. For payers, centralized dashboards and automated tools enable large-scale, recurring payouts, customizable controls, and reporting tools.

Popular use cases for Cosmo Payment include marketplaces, affiliate programs, creator platforms, and other high-volume disbursement models operating internationally. The company’s value proposition focuses on operational conveniences, including fast access to funds, global acceptance by card networks, and consistent workflows for recurring payouts.

Cosmo Payment CEO Anthony Nocella stated that Cosmo Payment is proud to support ASACP in its ongoing efforts dedicated to online child protection, and also the industries that require the tools and support to ensure child protection throughout.
