Internet Watch Foundation
The Internet Watch Foundation (IWF) operates the UK internet
Hotline for reporting criminal online content.
Their remit covers three areas:
- Child sexual abuse images hosted
worldwide
- Criminally obscene adult content hosted in the UK
- Non-photographic child sexual abuse images hosted in the
UK
In partnership with police, Government, the
internet industry, and international partners, the IWF works to
remove criminal content online and helps to
make the internet a safer place for everyone.
Don't ignore it, report it!
If you stumble across such images accidentally you should
report them to the IWF.
Why should I report these images?
Reports from the public help the IWF to remove the
images from the internet and to support the investigative
processes which could bring those responsible to
justice.
Child sexual abuse images record the real abuse of a child and
your reports to the IWF might help the authorities to trace and
rescue a young victim from further
exploitation.
How do I report?
Go to the Internet Watch
Foundation website and complete the step-by-step
form.
The form is easy to navigate and reports can be
submitted anonymously.
