ASACP Honors ImLive, Verifymy, and ShootXEvents as its Featured Sponsors for June 2026
LOS ANGELES (June 1, 2026) — The Association of Sites Advocating Child Protection (ASACP) is pleased to honor industry leaders ImLive, Verifymy, and ShootXEvents as its Featured Sponsors for June 2026. Now in its 30th year, ASACP is an award-winning, globally recognized, member- and sponsor-supported nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting online child safety by proactively helping parents and businesses protect children from online harms. ASACP gains financial and material backing from a group of prominent digital media companies and support service providers, as well as contributions from organizations, individuals, and stakeholders, including its monthly honor roll of featured sponsors. ASACP’s featured sponsors are highly respected industry leaders recognized for their significant contributions to corporate responsibility, ethical business practices, and the implementation of procedural and technical measures that ensure child safety. These measures aim to protect minors and other vulnerable users from accidental exposure to age-restricted online content, thereby safeguarding children’s safety and innocence as they navigate their daily digital lives. ASACP’s Executive Director, Tim Henning, sincerely thanks ImLive, Verifymy, and ShootXEvents for their continued support and crucial contribution to building a safer future through child protection initiatives. “Our sponsors’ dedication to age assurance helps protect the innocence of youth,” Henning explained, noting that the association’s free tools, education, and outreach rely on their generous support. “Together, we are truly making a positive difference in online child safety!” These tools include 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 companies of all sizes prevent minors from accessing age-restricted content. Among ASACP’s key accomplishments are its RTA (Restricted To Adults) meta-labeling system, designed to block children from adult web pages and apps, and its CSAM Reporting Tipline, which has handled 1.6 million reports since its launch and continues to serve as a crucial international resource. The association’s family of industry leaders, including June’s Featured Sponsors — ImLive, Verifymy, and ShootXEvents — is crucial in making our tools and services accessible to the broader community. ImLive An ASACP Corporate Sponsor since 2007, ImLive.com is a premium provider of live interactive webcam services that connect a global base of individual performers and studios with customers worldwide. Bridging the gap between consumers and producers puts ImLive at the forefront of ASACP’s mission to keep children out of and away from adult entertainment. For example, chat hosts must provide photo identification for age verification — part of a series of performer identification and compliance measures that ensure Imlive’s adherence to all relevant age-verification rules. In addition, ImLive is monitored 24/7 via a dedicated monitoring tool. This tool shows a continuous multi-window real-time stream of models as they broadcast their live cameras on the site. Furthermore, site users can flag any live video chat stream they believe is inappropriate. The company also limits any explicitly sexual displays to paid private shows, where only adult members are allowed. Beyond these measures and in support of ASACP, ImLive showcases its strong commitment to online child safety by using RTA meta-labeling and complying with all age-verification requirements. VerifyMy Verifymy is a safety technology provider on a mission to safeguard children and society online. With deep specialization in the adult entertainment industry, Verifymy has spent years developing low-friction safeguarding solutions designed to help platforms balance compliance, user privacy, and conversion optimization. Today, Verifymy works with organizations across sectors, including adult entertainment, social media, e-commerce, online video gaming, and dating, delivering solutions spanning identity verification, content moderation, consent management, and age assurance. Identity, Consent & Moderation: Verifymy supports platforms with identity verification, content moderation, and consent management solutions designed for high-volume, user-generated, and age-restricted environments. Working closely with platforms across the adult entertainment sector and the wider user-generated content ecosystem, Verifymy helps organizations strengthen creator protections, support consent and content authenticity workflows, and moderate harmful or illegal material at scale. Combining AI-driven technology with human moderation capabilities, Verifymy’s safeguarding solutions are designed to help platforms build safer, more trustworthy, and compliant online environments while supporting evolving regulatory expectations and platform safety requirements. Age Assurance: Designed to help platforms build safer, more age-appropriate experiences, Verifymy’s age assurance technology completes tens of millions of age checks each year for organizations ranging from start-ups and SMEs to global platforms. Operating across the UK, Europe, the US, Latin America, Australia, and Asia, Verifymy supports organizations with a broad range of highly effective age-assurance methods, enabling platforms to implement proportionate approaches whilst ensuring compliance across jurisdictions. This includes Verifymy’s market-leading email-based age checks. This low-friction solution can run seamlessly in the background using an email address that many platforms already collect and authenticate as part of existing user journeys. “It’s fascinating to see just how global the conversation around online safety has become,” Verifymy CEO Steve Ball said. “Increasingly, the discussion is moving beyond age assurance as a standalone compliance measure and towards what comes next for platform safeguarding — how platforms moderate content, manage consent, and build trust into their systems by design.” “We’re seeing growing recognition that effective safeguarding requires a more holistic, safety-by-design approach, where age assurance, identity, moderation, and consent are embedded into platform design from the outset,” Ball explained. “That’s where we see a significant opportunity to support platforms as they navigate the next generation of digital safeguarding challenges.” ShootXEvents ASACP’s newest In-Kind Media Sponsor, ShootXEvents, is a global media platform specializing in professional photography and video coverage for corporate events, conferences, trade shows, and industry gatherings. With a focus on capturing the energy and key moments of live events, ShootXEvents delivers high-quality visual content that enhances brand visibility and extends the impact of in-person experiences. Beyond event coverage, ShootXEvents also operates as an industry hub, offering a curated directory of companies, event insights, news, and promotional opportunities. By connecting businesses, creators, and industry stakeholders, the platform supports networking, growth, and increased visibility across multiple sectors, including digital media and adult entertainment. According to a company spokesperson, as the industry continues to evolve, maintaining responsible practices and supporting organizations that promote safety and transparency remain priorities for ShootXEvents. “Working closely in this space gives us a clear perspective on the importance of accountability,” the spokesperson explained. “Supporting ASACP is part of that responsibility, as is helping ensure that as the industry grows, it does so with the right safeguards in place to keep adult content where it belongs and out of reach of minors.” Henning thanked ImLive, Verifymy, and ShootXEvents for their leadership and support in helping the association prevent children from accessing or creating adult-oriented content. Henning emphasized that ASACP’s sponsors and members are essential to creating a safer space for consenting adults and to shielding society’s most vulnerable from a range of online dangers. “We appreciate our sponsors’ vital contributions to shaping industry standards and ensuring children’s online safety,” he concluded. “United together, we can make a difference in children’s daily digital lives.” To learn more about how your business can help protect itself by protecting children, email [email protected].
