Reception of

surfing reports

The Foundation data-base receives on ports 1891 and 1892 surfing reports by minors from all the Providers which utilise ChildKey technology. The reports do not contain personal data for the protection of Privacy of the minor.

A

Metadata ChildKey

Verification

 

During this phase the technology verifies the presence of ChildKey Metadata. If positive, the site’s html page is listed among those self-certified. The inserting of metadata on all visible html pages, either static or dynamic, allows the ChildKey Technology to discriminate among viewable and non-viewable page contents to the minors. The adoption of metadata, allows the standardisation of the technology and a diffusion at no cost to all web builders and webmasters of Internet sites. The failure to insert ChildKey metadata by the managers of sites visited by minors carries the inclusion of the site in the Black-List of sites not suited for minors compiled and updated by the Onlus Safety World Wide Web Foundation.

The information regarding the presence of a minor carries the obligation of self-certification if the contents are not to be viewed by minors according to current Italian and European legislation. The use of Metadata is licensed free of charge and so the software and the automatic insertion of it if the site contains multiple pages. The licensing conditions provide that the self-certification be made based on European and Italian laws governing the protection of minors.  

 

How the ChildKey metadata is formulated:

 

<meta name =”swww.childkey” content=”childkey.green”>

 

<meta name =”swww.childkey” content=”childkey.red”>

 

NOTE: the ChildKey metadata certifies each individual Html page of the site and not the entire site. Therefore, a site may contain both, viewable and non-viewable pages by minors, maintaining even in the presence of the latter the navigational bars (as long as they are visible). The “green” metadata sites undergo Parsing anyway, just for safety measures.

Analisi di

incongruenza

Il sistema accetta la dichiarazione di non visibilità per i minori e conseguentemente trasmette al minore la pagina di cortesia.

Nel caso invece di dichiarazione di visibilità, provvede comunque a controllarne il contenuto al fine di evitare una errata o mendace dichiarazione, in tale caso, il test di incongruenza evidenzia tale situazione e la Fondazione agirà non solo in sede penale ma anche in sede civile per ciolazione di licenza.

IIdentification of Registrant and Provider

The Foundation provides, through an automatic technology, to identify, in the presence of a URL visited by a minor, the Registrant and Provider which hosts it.

D

Verification of Notification

During this phase there is a verification if the information on point E has been sent to the Registrant or Provider. If so and in the absence of a metadata certification we proceed the phase F.

C

Content

verification

Through the use of Dynamic Parsing utilised by the ChildKey Technology, verification is done if an html page contents is non-viewable by minors. If so the URL is listed in the ChildKey Black-List (F) and proceed to a complaint-notification (H).

E

Parsing Semantic Models

The Foundation takes care of up-dating and training the Semantic Intelligence systems to obtain Models from which to extract dictionaries for the analysis of the html page’s content.  The Foundation takes care also for the use of other recognising methods. The updated dictionaries and software are transmitted to the Providers through ports 1891/1892.

I

Complaint

notification

The Foundation is charged with formulating complaints-notifications in case of infringements of minors’ rights who surf the Web. In such cases it furnishes all the necessary technical documentation.

F

Black-List ChildKey

A Black-List is compiled of sites not self-certified or with contents not suited for minors. Such Black-List is constantly monitored and updated and is distributed to providers through ports 1891/1892.

Private White and

private Black Lists

In ossequio alla sentenza della Corte Suprema Usa del 29 giugno 2004, il sistema non fa uso di Liste cosruite da terzi o comunque realizzate privando i soggetti inseriti della possibilità di autocertificazione. Le Private White and Black Lists sono l’espressione del massimo rispetto morale, religioso e politico della famiglia, scuola o altro sistema educativo che ne faccia uso. Difatti le stesse sono costruite dagli stessi educatori nel rispetto della propria linea di pensiero.

 

Black out List

The list of sites with offensive content is directly inserted in the Foundation data-base by the relevant Authorities. The Blackout list is distributed to Providers through ports 1891/1892
