Bans online platforms from researching kids under 13 and requires parent permission for teens.
This bill would stop certain online platforms from studying kids under 13 for marketing. For teens aged 13 to 16, platforms would need a parent's permission first. This aims to give parents more say in how companies use their children's online information.
Today, online platforms do not have specific federal prohibitions on conducting market or product-focused research on individuals under 17, beyond general privacy protections. If this bill becomes law, covered online platforms would be banned from doing this research on children under 13. For teens aged 13 to 16, platforms would need to get verifiable parental consent before conducting such research.
