Summary
Highlight any text to annotate
Existing law, the California Age-Appropriate Design Code Act, requires a business that provides an online service, product, or feature likely to be accessed by children to comply with certain requirements, including, among other things, prohibiting the business from profiling a child by default or using personal information for any reason other than the reason for which that information was collected, except as specified. Existing law imposes specified civil penalties upon a business that violates these provisions.
This bill would impose similar provisions without the above-referenced exceptions and would impose civil penalties for a violation of these provisions.
