The European Commission has proposed the EU KIDS Act to enhance online safety for children, including stricter social media age limits, safety-by-design obligations for platforms, privacy-preserving age verification, and stronger enforcement.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Consumer, and 9 sources have reported it between 16 Sep 2026 and 30 Sep 2026.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

You must redesign your social media or online platforms to meet strict new child safety rules or risk losing EU market access. Parents regain control and platforms face faster enforcement, tightening compliance deadlines.
