What this law does
Drafted with AI from the cited sources under the direction of UnGovr staff. UnGovr holds editorial responsibility for this page.
A person who offers or presents a product or service, including a media product or service, that could endanger a minor's development or safety, and an entrepreneur who enables access to such a product or service, must take suitable and reasonable measures ensuring that minors of the relevant age group do not obtain access.
Audio-visual media products and services, in particular films and entertainment software, may only be offered to, or possessed and consumed by, a minor consistent with a minimum-age classification that a commercial provider must apply and clearly display, following reference-body recommendations designated by the Office for Social Services.
The Act's own general child-protection framework is expressly subordinate, for media specifically, to the media legislation's own child-protection provisions (the Mediengesetz above); it operates as the residual, non-media-specific duty for a product or service more broadly.
