Key Points: 
  • = Survey of child-targeted websites and apps reveals progress on privacy protection, but parental involvement still the key =
    Websites and mobile apps that target children should limit the amount of personal information that they collect about children, and ensure that adequate protective controls for parents are in place where personal information is collected.
  • This was the message from the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC) and the 28 other privacy enforcement authorities that took part in the third Global Privacy Enforcement Network (GPEN) Privacy Sweep.
  • Globally, participating privacy enforcement authorities examined 1,494 websites and apps targeted at, or popular among, children.
  • Acting Australian Information Commissioner, Timothy Pilgrim, said that most of the websites and apps that the OAIC examined did not collect any personal information from children.
  • Less than a quarter of the websites and apps that we examined tailored their privacy messages to children, and three quarters of the websites or apps enabled children to be redirected off the platform, Mr Pilgrim said.
  • I also encourage parents and guardians to read privacy policies and to familiarise themselves with websites and apps that their children use, Mr Pilgrim said.
  • - Several authorities observed that, overall, websites and apps targeted at young children presented a more protective privacy environment for children than those that were simply popular with children.
  • - The OAICs results and the global results identified examples of good privacy practices and bad privacy practices on websites and apps targeted at children:


Some websites and apps encouraged parental involvement.
The OAIC has published a number of resources that developers can use to ensure that their websites and apps comply with the
*Privacy Act 1988 *(Cth) and contain adequate privacy protections, including: Guide to developing an APP privacy policy Mobile privacy: a better practice guide for mobile app developers
