Most home computers and laptops running Microsoft Windows, Apple iPhones and iPads, and Android smartphones and tablets. In addition we often work with routers provided by internet service providers such as those made by TP Link and Netgear etc.

The initial consultation usually takes about an hour, and is conducted in your home. We like this stage of the process to be informal and relaxed, and where possible we try not to be bound by a time limit. The fee for the consultation is the same regardless of how long the session takes.

For the initial consultation we find it is best for this to be limited to parents and Securiteen staff, although we're happy for children to be present if circumstances dictate. Whether or not you choose to engage Securiteen to help implement the recommended measures, or implement them yourself, it is important that children are involved at that stage, and understand what is expected of them going forward.

While no solution can guarantee 100% effectiveness, most of our strategies and solutions work successfully for the majority of families. We provide robust measures designed to address common challenges, and our experience shows that these approaches are highly effective. However, children can be inventive, so it's important for parents to be aware of potential ways they might try to bypass the measures. As part of our service, we offer guidance on how to monitor and address these situations, ensuring that you remain informed and prepared.

Our initial consultation is $99, and our hourly rate for any work we do as part of the implementation service is $75 per hour. Any hardware that is required will be billed at cost plus a margin of 15%, and any software or subscriptions that are required from 3rd-party suppliers will be billed directly to the customer at cost.

Based on our experience, achieving optimal device usage often necessitates a combination of methods. For instance, while a home router's internet access control can manage in-home usage, it will not restrict mobile devices connected to 4G/5G networks outside the home. In some cases, a straightforward home internet solution or specific restrictions on a few devices may suffice to meet the parents' needs. Each situation is unique, and we tailor our approach to ensure the most effective solution for your family's requirements.
