Regulations
Digital Services Act
European Union
The Digital Services Act (DSA) is a European law designed to require online platforms to combat harmful and illegal behaviors and foster transparency across the industry.
The DSA outlines a variety of obligations, with some of the most notable being a requirement of regular transparency reports to disclose the effectiveness of each platform’s moderation efforts; as well as banning users who repeatedly upload or share illegal content.

Children's Online Privacy Protection Act
United States
The Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) imposes controls on online platforms that are targeted towards kids or have a lot of underage users.
Among other requirements, COPPA requires parental consent before platforms can process PII (personally identifiable information) of children under the age of 13. COPPA is designed specifically to protect children, and allows for looser interpretations when it’s in the best interest of the child.
"COOPA 2.0" is currently on the Senate floor and would extend these protections to teens as well.

Modulate limits our collection of PII wherever possible, and we restrict all collected data to be used solely for moderation in to improve user safety. We're certified COPPA-compliant.

eSafety Industry Codes
Australia
Australia's Online Safety Bill created the eSafety Commission, an office solely devoted to enforcing online safety standards.
The eSafety Commission is empowered to publish "Industry Code" expectations for a variety of industries, including game developers. The Industry Code relevant to games was initially rejected and is now being reworked to require more proactive efforts by platforms.
