Children in the Digital World

Protection of children online has become a key area of global regulatory focus in the digital ecosystem in recent years, with concerns over risks to children’s rights, safety and wellbeing online prompting a wave of regulatory, policy and legislative activity across the world.

These measures are focused, in part, on placing responsibility on providers of digital services to take effective action to protect children against a variety of online risks, while still respecting their rights under international law to access all the benefits that the digital world has to offer them.

Around the world, and even within the same region, there can be major variations in national laws and regulatory requirements relating to children’s use of digital products and services – for example some countries may have very specific online safety laws while others may not. The consequence is that for businesses offering digital products and services to mixed use audiences (i.e. children and adults) across multiple jurisdictions, it is very challenging to navigate the growing spider’s web of different national legal requirements, regulatory decisions and guidelines aimed at protecting children and respecting their rights.
