Overview:
ACE*COMM believes that Parent Patrol™ is that solution. Parent Patrol is a policy-enforcement service that allows parents to define, manage, and enforce restrictions of their children’s use of mobile and data services. It is positioned as an add-on service that can be overlaid on an existing mobile plan. The value proposition for the consumer is the ability for parents (and other authorized users) to easily manage their children’s phone usage in terms of what services can be used, when they can be used, who they contact, and what content can and cannot be accessed.

The paper describes these opportunities and how Parent Patrol can be used by the mobile service provider to leverage current trends and to tear down roadblocks to providing mobile phones to children.
