The California Age-Appropriate Design Code Act (the “Act”) would serve as the first piece of legislation in the United States that imposes a number of novel restrictions and data protection obligations on businesses providing services to users under the age of 18. The California Senate passed the landmark Assembly Bill 2273 on August 29, 2022. If signed into law by Governor Newsom, the Act could have significant implications for businesses that provide online services, products or features “likely to be accessed” by children (i.e., consumers under the age of 18).
