Google is providing app developers with expanded tools for age confirmation on the Google Play store, enabling them to better comply with age-related content and data regulations.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Generalist.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

Platform-level age gating is becoming a core compliance requirement, not an app-level feature. You now have the tools from Google to enforce this, which means the liability for failing to do so is now squarely on you.
