This service is certified by TRUSTe for adherence to model privacy practices. Every substantial internet service platform must treat the confidential information of its users with privacy and respect, but services such as WorldGroups – which offer communication facilities where users can converse candidly with others, express themselves on a wide range of issues, and engage others in confidence – owe their users the absolute "Gold Standard" in confidentiality and discretion. WorldGroups delivers on that standard. To review this service's TRUSTe-certified Privacy Policy, click here.

WorldGroups is intended for mature audiences only. The WorldGroups communications platform contains user-populated areas where users may engage in frank conversation and candid forms of expression that may occasionally involve sensitive and/or controversial subject matter. ICRA self-labeled as "mature audiences only", this service supports the parental-controls features built into major internet services such as Microsoft Internet Explorer/MSN and America Online. This service is also blocked by major independent filtering services, such as NetNanny and CyberSitter, and works proactively with such services to ensure inaccessibility by minors.
