WASHINGTON, D.C. — The Digital Trust & Safety Partnership (DTSP), a first-of-its-kind initiative aimed at promoting a safer and more trustworthy internet, today welcomed Match Group as its newest partner.
DTSP brings together a diverse range of innovative digital companies, representing various products, sizes and business models.
