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 citizen or legal entity possessing rights in the internet environment must maintain a special package of services devoted to children. When concluding a service contract, that citizen or legal entity must ask whether there are children under the age of 18 in the customer's care, and agree with the customer whether to use special channel services for adults.
The duty is part of the Law's original 2016 text; unlike the neighbouring paragraphs of the same article, it carries no later amendment note. Liability for a breach of the Law's child-protection duties is left to a separate Law on Violations, and, for conduct that amounts to a crime, to the Criminal Code; this Law states no fine or penalty figure of its own for art. 8.6.
