French Standards Agency (AFNOR) and Yubo guidance for protection of minors on social media

A partnership between the French Standards Agency (AFNOR) and social media industry has resulted in the publication of a guide on child safety on social media platforms, led by Yubo.

The guidelines provide detailed information about the three most common account verification measures: age checks, parental consent and identity verification. The publication also explores the topics of detection and content moderation, transparency and awareness raising and legal regulations.

The AFNOR SPEC2305: Risk prevention and protection of minors on social media platforms, is available to read in English below.
