Age Restrictions for Content

Under Google’s publication policies and general regulations such as COPPA (Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act) in the United States, content must be clearly marked if it is targeted towards children under the age of 13. Here are some key considerations:

1. Content for Children Under 13: If your content is specifically targeted at children, you must comply with child privacy protection laws (e.g., COPPA in the U.S.). This involves obtaining verifiable parental consent before collecting any personal data from children under 13.
2. Age Gating: Content should be age-gated if it is not intended for minors or is meant for a specific age group (e.g., 13+, 18+).
3. User-generated Content: If your platform allows user-generated content (UGC), you should have tools in place to help prevent minors from uploading inappropriate or harmful content.
4. Data Collection and Consent: For users under 18, especially in jurisdictions like the EU (with GDPR) and California (with CCPA), you may need to obtain parental consent before collecting any personal information.
5. App Store Guidelines: For platforms like Google Play, developers must follow Google’s specific guidelines on age-appropriate content and data collection practices. Google also offers age rating systems and categorization tools for apps.

Key Steps to Follow for Age-Restricted Content:

• Implement an age verification system if your app or service is age-sensitive.
• Be transparent about how and why you collect data, and allow parents to access and manage their child’s information.
• Make sure that your content complies with COPPA, GDPR, and other local privacy laws.
