Let's surf smartly on the internet!

With free filtering software, we easily help children use the internet more safely.

Do you have a young child? You wouldn't let them cross the street alone, would you? So why let them wander the internet unprotected?

With the arrival of summer vacation, children have more free time – during this period, not only camps but also the internet offers countless opportunities for entertainment, exploring the world, and even making new friends. The internet is truly a treasure trove.

Why do one in three mothers surveyed believe that the "web" can be harmful and dangerous for their child?

Parents – feeling their responsibility – are rightfully concerned that their child doesn't yet know all the tricks of navigating the internet. How is it possible that – according to a recent survey – every second child aged 7-10 in our country, and even one in ten children under 7, regularly uses the internet alone!? This is a huge number, so the concern is not unfounded – but it's good to know that help can come from several directions. As with other areas of parental care, with the internet it's best if the child takes their first steps together with the parent, who later doesn't completely let go of their child's hand. Help them know where to go, what to avoid, and stay informed about where they go and what they do on the web. Talk to them with trust and openness, discover the countless opportunities together! Constant personal presence is of course not possible – and not even justified. Because nowadays, care is also possible from a distance. For this purpose, we now recommend free, easily downloadable filtering programs that monitor your child's internet use 24 hours a day – even on multiple portable devices at once.

Are you also worried that unexpected, scary, or adult content may harm your child's emotional development?

With the software, you can set what you don't want your child to access on the internet. It's advisable to discuss and agree on this in advance – this can also strengthen your trusting relationship. The programs show what keywords your child searches with, and allow you to filter out inappropriate, unwanted content. The system logs visited pages on the computer, so unwanted content can be filtered out afterwards as well. You can also block certain websites using your mobile device. If your child violates the filter settings, the software will notify you by email.

Are you worried that too much time spent in front of the computer will make your child internet-addicted?

With the filters, you can determine how much time they can spend browsing, and set time limits (weekly, daily, hourly).

Are you worried that your child's social behavior and habits are changing in the wrong direction, or that they might reveal confidential information and put themselves in danger?

The filter shows which social platforms your child is present on, what photos they post, and what they share about themselves. But it's even better if they can turn to you with trust, and you decide all this together. With the software, you can prevent them from sharing confidential personal data on the internet, including phone number, home address, email address, or even social security number. If you explain the risks involved, the child won't experience this as a restriction, but will feel their own responsibility too. The system also enables supervision on mobile devices, so you can change the settings not only from home but also on the go. As the internet expands, so does the number of parents who protect their children's internet use with education and filters. Are you among them yet? For the safe internet use of minors*, since July 1, 2014, as an internet service provider, we provide free download and subsequent free use of easy-to-install and use software (filtering software) from our website for all interested subscribers (parents).
