Summary

The bill adds new rules to the Business and Professions Code that apply to any online service, product, or feature that is likely to be accessed by people under 18. It requires companies to set strong privacy settings, give clear age‑appropriate notices, and stop profiling or collecting unnecessary data about children. The goal is to protect minors from harmful data practices and give them (and their parents) tools to control their privacy.
