Safe Surfing Filter Glossary

This is a glossary of terms that describes in detail the filtering option categories available with Iprotect DSL Intenet Service. It is your option to choose to block or allow access to these categories of web sites and content when you setup your account. With verification, you may change the access to these categories at any time.

This category includes URLs that sell, promote, or advocate the use of alcoholic beverages, including beer, wine, and hard liquors.

This category includes URLs that enable anonymous Web browsing through an intermediary to prevent unauthorized parties from gathering personal information, but also allow users access to any Web page and bypass blocking software. Pages that provide free proxy IP addresses are also included in this category.

This category includes Web page language translators and Web-page-caching utilities that could be used as anonymizers, without the express purpose of bypassing filtering software.

Web sites in this category contain virtual art galleries, artist sites (including sculpture and photography), and other cultural topics, such as museums, ethnic customs and country customs.

This category includes URLs that offer access to online auctions. Online auctions are rarely monitored; therefore these sites may expose users to material that would otherwise be filtered under categories such as Pornography, Weapons, Nudity, or Violence.
