Children are growing up in a world where being online is a normal part of daily life. With ads woven seamlessly into online content as digital platforms evolve, data collection practices become more complex.
At CARU 2021, the country’s premiere event dedicated to children’s advertising and privacy law, BBB National Programs’ Children’s Advertising Review Unit (CARU) convenes advertising, marketing, privacy, academic, and legal experts in the children’s space during a pivotal year. After almost 15 years, CARU is releasing a groundbreaking update to its self-regulatory guidelines for child-directed marketing. The FTC is conducting a Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) Rule review to strengthen protections for children’s data online.
How will companies become more agile yet remain compliant in this evolving landscape? Through our line-up of expert speakers and panelists, attendees will gain exclusive insight into the changes that lie ahead for both children’s advertising and privacy, as well as a deep understanding of the challenges facing advertisers, marketers, developers, and legal professionals. And of course, there will be tips and advice on how to navigate those changes and challenges.
