What is a Hotline?

The Theodore Puskas Foundation is providing a Hotline reporting service from May 2011, to tackle illegal and harmful contents hosted all around the world. 

The Hotline was estabilished as a part of the Safer Internet Plus project as a partner of the Hungarian Saferinternet.hu consortium. The project is supported by the European Commisision.

The categories of illegal and harmful contents that the hotline handles are the following:

• Child Sexual abuse images (pictures, videos)
   
• Grooming, Cyberbullying
   
• Harmful, Violent contents
   
• Racial hatred contents
   
• Enticement for drug consumption
  
  
• Harmful contents published without the offended's agreement
   
• Other harmful contents 

Main goal of the Hotline is to take down the harmful contents as soon as possible. Harmful contents can be defined as any kind of website or online video, picture, and text, which can be detrimental for the growth of the young generation. The Theodore Puskas Foundation's main objective is to minimise these threats and take down all these contents or restrict them from the children. To achive these goals, we are working together with the Hungarian police, the ISPs, and members of the INHOPE association.
