TikTok’s efforts to keep children off the platform and prevent the collection and use of their sensitive personal information are “inadequate" but the company is taking steps to address concerns, Canadian privacy authorities said Tuesday.
Federal Privacy Commissioner Philippe Dufresne said TikTok must do more to keep underage children off its platform and must better explain its data collection practices, especially to youth. The company has said the platform is not intended for people under the age of 13.
