About the Code
This Code, updated in November 2008, sets out principles under which Mobile Content services will be provided in order to ensure that Mobile Content services are provided in a socially responsible manner. This includes the protection of minors from inappropriate content.
It is intended that the Code will provide end users with confidence in the provision of content services by operators. Operators will support the Code by providing customers with information and education on the safe and appropriate use of Mobile Content services.
The Code covers issues relating to: commercial services; internet content; illegal content; unsolicited bulk communications; and malicious communications. It provides assurance that operators will take action against illegal content, unsolicited bulk communications and malicious communications.
The Code does not cover Peer-to-Peer communications.
