Parental Controls

We provide parents with tools they need to help to safeguard their children and that are easy for our customers to understand and use. To help parents manage their children’s Internet experience, AOL provides protections that help parents to observe, limit, or otherwise monitor their children’s online activities. AOL, for example, offers free parental control software. Available at parental controls.AOL.com, the software offers standard age-based access controls, selective controls on instant messaging (AIM) and chat, timers that terminate online access at preset time limits, and email reports on children’s online activities.

Parents are not required to use these tools, but AOL actively informs its users that the tools are available and offers various forms of support to parents to help them use the tools effectively. AOL has partnered with Common Sense Media, the nation’s leading non-partisan organization dedicated to improving the impact of media and entertainment on children and families. Through this partnership, AOL customers receive easy-to-access, point-of-decision reviews, ratings and program information designed to help parents make informed viewing choices about TV and movies.

"Austism: Unraveling the Mystery" was a multi-platform CNN event.
