English term or phrase: restricted social networking sites
Approvals to access restricted social networking sites through the xx network will be administered by the Corporate. Such exceptions will be granted based upon on a legitimate business rationale for access.

I know that in China you can't access any social networking site. Is there any restricted social networking site in the West?

social networking sites as restricted by corporate policies


Explanation:
The restriction comes from the Corporate, typically represented by HR, Information Security, or Compliance Dept., not from state/government.

In China, yes, restriction comes from the state.
