Sec. 2. Findings, declarations. The Legislature finds and declares that residents of this State need to be informed of the potential risks of participating in Internet dating services, Internet child care services, Internet senior care services, and Internet home care services. There is a public safety need to disclose whether criminal history background screenings have been performed and to increase public awareness of the possible risks associated with Internet dating, Internet child care, Internet senior care, and Internet home care activities.
The primary purpose of this Act is to enhance the safety of individuals who use an Internet service to facilitate dating, child care, senior care, or home care.
The offer of Internet dating services, child care services, senior care services, and home care services to residents of this State, and the acceptance of membership fees from residents of this State means that an Internet dating service, Internet child care service, Internet senior care service, or Internet home care service is conducting business in this State and is subject to regulation by this State and the jurisdiction of the State's courts.
