Adopts the binding technical and process rules that website managers and video-sharing platform providers must use to verify users are adults before granting access to pornographic content, using a dual anonymity model with independent certified third party verifiers so that neither the verifier nor the site learns both the user's identity and the service accessed.
Providers established in Italy had six months from publication, until 12 November 2025, to comply; AGCOM published a list of about 48 covered pornographic sites on 31 October 2025, and providers not established in Italy had until 1 February 2026.
