Family Orbit Parental Monitoring App Celebrates Being Certified by KidSAFE+ COPPA-Certified Seal, an FTC Approved “Safe-harbor” Program

Predators and other dangers often hunt children over the phone and online, in patterns well established by law enforcement. This makes taking smart preventive measures a responsibility no parent or guardian should take lightly. Answering the call as a dependable resource to help in this area is Family Orbit, an app that allows parents to monitor and restrict how their children use their phones, helping safeguard them from potentially dangerous communications, or worse encounters. The company recently announced the new app is KidSafe+ COPPA certified, that delivers clear proof that the child user's privacy meets all FTC guidelines in this vital area.

"Family Orbit has made our highest priority to be certain that the data captured from our children user's phones are handled in reliable and dependable compliance to the COPPA guidelines that have been set in place for very good reasons," commented Aliya Beck, Manager at AppOBit LLC "We teamed up with the experts at Samet Privacy, LLC, to both make sure we complied with FTC guidelines concerning COPPA and our app is providing the high-level of protection that we demand of it ourselves."

To verify this independently, Family Orbit has been reviewed, certified, and listed by kidSAFE to meet all of the requirements demanded by the FTC to offer this kind of parental monitoring service.

According to the company, the parental control and monitoring app hands the keys to the lock of what their children can do with their phone both online and off. This includes monitoring and supervision of phone calls, photos, texts, GPS location, what websites they can or cannot visit and much more. Their child can also connect with their family through chat and check-ins, as needed or agreed upon. Cyberbullying, pedophilia, and "sexting" are real dangers that Family Orbit seeks to remove completely or minimize as much as possible.

The kidSAFE Seal Program was founded and developed by an experienced children's privacy consultant, Shai Samet who has won both praise and awards for his work. The project is also helped with guidance from the highest-level of Internet safety experts, including Anne Collier (ConnectSafely.org), Ken Leonard (former CEO, ScanAlert) and Marian Merritt (Norton/Symantec).
