Enacting the app store accountability act to regulate app store and developer operations with respect to minors, create requirements for age verification and parental consent and provide for enforcement under the Kansas consumer protection act and through a private cause of action.

Summary

The bill would make Kansas app stores confirm a user’s age, link minors to a verified parent account, and obtain clear parental permission before a minor can download, purchase, or make in‑app purchases. It also sets data‑sharing rules, encryption standards, and enforcement mechanisms through the state consumer‑protection law. The measure failed and never became law.
