App Store Accountability Act; civil penalties, civil action.

Summary

The bill makes any company that runs an app store in Virginia check a user’s age, require a parent’s consent for users under 18, and share that age and consent data with the app’s developer. Developers must also confirm ages, notify stores of major app changes, and use the data to enforce age‑appropriate rules. Violations can bring civil penalties from the Attorney General or private lawsuits by harmed minors or parents.
