🤔 Wondering why your child still has an account on an age-restricted social media platform?While early figures show that major social media platforms restricted access to 4.7 million accounts belonging to children under 16, we know that some still have access to theirs.Accounts can still be removed, deactivated or restricted at any time, and there are various reasons why this might happen, including:⏱️ Implementing fair and accurate age check processes may take more time for some platforms and some accounts.⚠️ Other people can report to the platform that a user is under 16, which may trigger an age check.🔄 Age-restricted platforms are expected to re-check the age of an account holder if there are indications that it's likely the user is under 16 – even if they have already passed an age check.Some of the signals that platforms may check include:🔎 interaction with content targeted at under-16s or membership in youth-focused groups, forums or communities🔎 analysis of the language level and style used by the account holder🔎 analysis of photos and videos uploaded to the platform.If your child is under-16 and still has any social media accounts, you don't have to wait for the platforms to act. Have a conversation with your child about the age restrictions, explaining they're designed to help protect people their age, and delete the apps together.For more information and resources, visit our social media age restrictions hub: news.esafety.gov.au/47GzqDZ ...
