Article 8(3) of the Radio and Television Broadcasting Law requires an on-demand broadcasting service provider (an audiovisual streaming or video-on-demand service within the Radio and Television Supreme Council's jurisdiction) to ensure that a broadcast service of a nature that could adversely affect the physical, mental, or moral development of children and young people is presented in a way that they would not normally hear or see under ordinary conditions.

A parallel duty at Art. 8(2), strengthened by Law No. 7077 in 2018, separately bars broadcasting such content during time periods children could watch even where a protective symbol is used, for linear radio and television broadcasting rather than on-demand services.
