Wednesday 17 April 2019

Today the UK Government announced July the 15th 2019 as the date for when all adult websites will need to verify their visitors are at least 18 years of age.

AdultWork.com is fully prepared and will support most, if not all, of the age verification providers that achieve accreditation from the BBFC.

AdultWork.com Members can already age verify by SMS, credit card and more. Those that have already age-verified with AgeID, AVSecure or AgeChecked will soon be able to use their status in conjunction with AdultWork.com.

Whilst GDPR and age verification present challenges for all adult business operators, AdultWork.com is committed to providing an industry compliant platform for all its members so that they can continue to focus on what they do best without worrying about regulation issues. We are already well prepared, implementing both 3rd party and in-house age verification systems aimed at making the whole AV process as seamless as possible to potential site visitors to make sure there is minimum disruption to your business.

Information on this and more can be found on the Age Verification Regulator’s Website.
