The European Commission passed the EU KIDS Act, prohibiting social media access for children under 13, requiring platforms to self-certify product safety, setting a minimum age of 15 for independent accounts, and inverting the burden of proof. Platforms must implement safety measures such as limiting social contacts and daily usage time.
What it means for you
• Obligations: Social media platforms must comply with age restrictions, implement parental control modes for 13-15 year olds, and build in safety features like usage time limits. • Opportunities: Platforms can develop age-appropriate services and tools for parents, potentially expanding their user base within a regulated framework. • Deadlines: The legislation is currently in the drafting stage, with no specific enforcement date mentioned, but it is expected to enter the legislative process and be enacted.
