Independent study on the impact of age assurance on fundamental rights and costs for businesses
- Published
- Record updated
Summary
The European Commission commissioned an external contractor to study how age assurance affects fundamental rights and what it costs businesses, including micro and small enterprises, to inform the proposed EU KIDS Act. The study finds an age assurance framework can be proportionate and rights-respecting if safeguards such as GDPR coherence and privacy-preserving technical standards are in place. It also concludes that costs for most services, including SMEs, are likely to remain modest and fall over time, partly because the EU age verification blueprint is open and publicly subsidised. The study does not assess the proposed EU KIDS Act or any specific provider.
