ICM Overview: The .XXX Registry and Children

Creation of a TLD for responsible adult webmasters will materially contribute to family online safety efforts.

1. ICM will donate $10 per year per registration to fund IFFOR’s policy development activities and to provide financial support for the work of online safety organizations, child pornography hotlines, and to sponsor the development of tools and technology to promote child safety and fight child pornography.
2. Registrants in .xxx will be required to adhere to a set of industry best practices that are designed to promote child safety and user empowerment by:
   • Prohibiting child pornography
   • Requiring clear labeling of registrant sites
   • Prohibiting misuse of personal information
   • Requiring accurate meta-tagging
   • Ensuring clear and accurate consumer disclosures
   • Protecting IP rights
   • Prohibiting use of malicious codes and technologies (i.e. spoofing)
   • Prohibiting fraudulent, anonymous, or unsolicited commercial emails
   • Prohibiting use of malicious redialers, credit card fraud, and unauthenticated use of credit cards
3. ICM will develop mechanisms to enforce registrant compliance with registry policies, including the use of automated tools to proactively monitor registrant compliance with registry policies related to labeling and the prohibition of child pornography.
4. ICM will create mechanisms for user reporting of non compliance with registry policies, including the development, posting, and enforcement of procedures for curing non-compliance and penalties, including cancellation of registration, for failure to cure.
5. IFFOR will serve as a credible forum for representation and self-regulation where all stakeholders are able to discuss and actively respond to concerns about online pornography.
