Schools and Family Zone
Family Zone works with participating Schools to link a Child's personal devices to the School. Parents and the School can work together to keep a Child safe at home, at School, and while travelling in between.
Advantages
Easy Setup
Unlike online safety products offered by hardware manufacturers and operating system developers, Family Zone works across different types of devices.
The parents only need to access the child's device the first time Family Zone is set up. Default internet recommendations are based on your child's age group.
Easy Updates
After setup, Parents can view and update the Family Zone monitoring remotely. The Family Zone products synchronize settings in less than 2 minutes.
Parents don't have to worry about new online threats. The Family Zone's online safety experts provide online safety recommendations that are automatically synchronized with all devices protected by Family Zone.
Practical Default Settings
Family Zone requires very little setup. Parents get a recommended default daily schedule based on their child's age group. The default routine each day includes device monitoring for School, Study, Play, and Sleep times.
Family Zone Partner Schools can automatically update the child's school day calendar and routine to match their semester or term dates.
