and to empower parents and carers to engage with and help protect their children in the digital world. In 2012, members of the<strong><a href="https://www.ictcoalition.eu/files/medias/uploads/source/ict principles.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> ICT Coalition signed up to a set of guiding principles</a></strong> to ensure that the safety of younger internet users is integral to the products and services they develop.</p> <p class="737e6buiez3rtfsmc">The Principles for the Safer Use of Connected Devices and Online Services by Children and Young People in the EU that have been developed by the ICT Coalition encourage best practice in the key areas of content, parental controls, dealing with abuse/misuse, child sexual abuse content or illegal content, privacy and control, and education and awareness.</p> <p class="737e6buiez3rtfsmc">As the first industry-led Europe-wide principles in the online safety arena, they provide a long term roadmap for the member companies. The ICT Coalition for Children Online fully supports related initiatives from European Commission.</p> <p class="737e6buiez3rtfsmc">Find out more about the Principles on this site.</p> </div> </div> </div> <div class="block"> <div class="owl-carousel"> <div style="background: url('https://www.ictcoalition.eu/files/static/img/home/01.jpg');"></div> <div style="background: url('https://www.ictcoalition.eu/files/static/img/home/02.jpg');"></div> <div style="background: url('https://www.ictcoalition.eu/files/static/img/home/03.jpg');"></div> <div style="background: url('https://www.ictcoalition.eu/files/static/img/home/04.jpg');"></div> <div style="background: url('https://www.ictcoalition.eu/files/static/img/home/05.jpg');"></div> </div> </div> <div class="block"> <div class="title"> <h2>Principle 1</h2> <h3>Content</h3> </div> <div class="description"> <div class="descriptionResume"> Some online content might not be appropriate for children and young people.
