How does AdultBlock work?

AdultBlock employs a technology similar to DPML, allowing users to submit terms related to adult content to a centralized registry. This registry then blocks the registration of domain names containing these terms across multiple TLDs, preventing associations with adult content. AdultBlock+ utilizes DNS configurations and requires a Signed Mark Data (SMD) file from the Trademark Clearing House (TMCH) to block terms and their variations across specific TLDs.

What are the benefits of AdultBlock?

  • Brand Protection: Shield your brand from association with adult content, maintaining your intended image.
  • Compliance: Assist in complying with industry regulations by preventing the registration of domains related to explicit content.
  • Risk Mitigation: Reduce the risk of unintended associations or misuse of domains that could harm your brand's reputation.
  • AdultBlock+ adds an extra layer of protection against cybersquatting, phishing, and malicious code associated with adult content.

Who is eligible?

Eligibility extends to:

  • Trademark holders with a valid Signed Mark Data (SMD) file issued by the Trademark Clearinghouse (TMCH).
  • An active nationally or regionally registered trademark.
  • Unregistered trademark: A mark created by a business or individual to signify or distinguish a product or service.
  • Registered Companies & Trading As names.
  • Famous persons, sports stars and personalities, political figures, actors, social media celebrities and public figures.
