IMPORTANT
The Child Online Protection Service ("COP Service") is provided on an "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" basis. This service is designed to assist parents and guardians in reducing their child's exposure to certain categories of online content. IT IS NOT A GUARANTEE OF COMPLETE PROTECTION.
No technical filtering solution can block all harmful content. The internet is dynamic and constantly evolving. New harmful content may appear before it can be identified and blocked. The COP Service is a first line of defence only and does not replace active parental supervision.
