Last week, the FTC issued a long-awaited notice of proposed rulemaking that will bring changes to the COPPA Rule, the set of FTC regulations that operationalize the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), which governs online service and website operators focused on children under 13 and the entities collecting or using those children's personal information. This move follows the FTC's announcement in 2019 that it would ensure COPPA "remains effective" despite "rapid technological changes" impacting "the online children's marketplace."

According to press release from the FTC, the proposed changes would "shift the burden from parents to providers to ensure that digital services are safe and secure for children" and place new restrictions on the "use and disclosure of children's personal information." Further, the proposed changes would limit "the ability of companies to condition access to services on monetizing children's data."
