02

Preserve carefully

Record usernames, URLs and timestamps. Follow evidence and custody procedures.

01PH response overview
  • PNP Anti-Cybercrime Group (PNP-ACG) — (02) 8414-1560
  • NBI — cybercrime / online exploitation tip paths
  • Bantay Bata 163 — child protection support for families
  • School CPC — school-based child protection referrals
  • NCMEC CyberTipline — cross-border reports involving online exploitation of minors
02Legal anchor — RA 11930 (OSAEC)

Republic Act No. 11930 (Anti-Online Sexual Abuse or Exploitation of Children and Anti-Child Sexual Abuse or Exploitation Materials Act) strengthens PH responses to online sexual abuse and exploitation of children. Cite carefully; link to official text. Legal review advised before treating as operational guidance.

03Coordination notes
  • Preserve digital evidence early; avoid tipping suspects when unsafe.
  • Cross-border platform activity may warrant NCMEC CyberTipline coordination alongside local filing.
  • Families need the parent script and hotlines without graphic briefing.
04Evidence preservation (high-level)
  • Capture usernames, URLs, timestamps, chat exports, and device custody notes
  • Do not coach victims to re-engage offenders for “more proof”
  • Document chain of custody per unit SOP
