The Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) regulates online data collection for children, empowering parents and guardians.
Websites targeting children under 13 must comply with COPPA regulations, including informing users about data collection.
Some platforms ban users under 13, while others require birth dates for registration to enforce age restrictions.
Concerns remain about users falsifying age, lack of parental awareness, and the importance of reviewing Terms and Conditions for online privacy protection.
