The California Age-Appropriate Design Code: Navigating the New Requirements for Child Privacy

The California Age-Appropriate Design Code Act (CAADCA) was signed into law by Governor Gavin Newsom in September 2022. Starting on July 1, 2024, the bill will mandate businesses providing online services or features that are “likely to be accessed by children” take certain measures, such as conducting a data protection impact assessment.

In this webinar, our experts explore the intersection between CAADCA and existing children’s privacy laws, and provide guidance on how companies, especially those in the gaming and child data handling app industries, can achieve compliance well in advance of the effective date.

This webinar will review:

• A summary of the bill and the timelines of its implementation.
• Default privacy settings suitable for each age group, along with information on privacy, terms of service, policies, and community standards.
• Mandates for conducting Data Protection Impact Assessments (DPIAs).
• Responsibilities assigned to the Children’s Data Protection Working Group.
