Governance

The allegations made are inaccurate and demonstrate a lack of legal and technical understanding. The allegation that various services are ‘unavailable’ on Telekom's network is false. Deutsche Telekom is not violating net neutrality. Nor does it slow down network traffic. We are sure that the Federal Network Agency will also recognise this and are looking forward to a review. The small number of unchecked allegations collected by the consumer advice centre over the months speaks for itself in view of the millions of customers.

We want to create a safe and positive online experience for children and young people. We offer them attractive, exciting content on age-appropriate websites.
Supporting standardized child protection offers
We became a member of the non-profit organization JusProg e.V. in 2016. Its software protects children and young people on the internet by blocking certain content.
This software has been officially recognized as a general child protection program in Germany in accordance with statutory requirements (JMStV). The software was most recently evaluated in March 2017.
We donated the rights to the program codes behind our child protection software (Windows) and our child protection app, Surfgarten, (iPhone/iPad) to JusProg e.V.
Commitment to FSM
We are a founding member and part of the executive board of FSM, the Association for the Voluntary Self-Monitoring for Multimedia Service Providers. The association published the “Index for Youth Media Protection” for the first time in 2017. The 2018 youth media protection report specifically addressed teachers and educational specialists.
