Try Kids Email for Free
Cathy has two children, Luke and Lydia, and uses KidsEmail from KidsEmail.org to protect her family.
Luke is 10 and loves to send and receive emails from his friends.
Cathy enables a setting on Kids Email to allow Luke to send and receive email from anyone in his contact list.
Luke's friend sends Luke an email using his Hotmail account. Notice that Luke's friend is being bombarded with ads ranging from weight-loss to dating sites.
KidsEmail takes the email and even though it is from a friend in Luke's contact list, it censors any bad words, removes images from the email, and checks it for viruses, all based on Cathy's settings for Luke.
Cathy is automatically copied on the email so that she is aware of the correspondence that Luke is receiving.
Luke receives the email in his KidsEmail account and sees it in a safe setting, with no ads, no bad words, and no viruses.
A little later in the day someone emails Cathy’s daughter, Lydia.
KidsEmail receives it and since the sender is not in Lydia’s trusted contact list, it sends the email to Cathy to review first. Cathy does not recognize the sender and does not want her child to receive email from him.
Cathy clicks on an easy link in the email so that she can accept or deny the message in KidsEmail's mail queue.
Here she can add the sender to Lydia’s contact list, or just simply allow or reject the message.
Cathy rejects the message. Lydia never sees the email.
Cathy is no computer expert, but KidsEmail from KidsEmail.org is so easy to use, she doesn't have to be!
She can rest easy knowing that her two children are safe!
