Comparitech公布的最新研究表明,谷歌Play Store上有将近25%的儿童应用程序并不符合英国信息专员办公室(ICO)公布的适龄设计规范。

IT之家 2月23日消息,Comparitech公布的最新研究表明,谷歌Play Store上有将近25%的儿童应用程序并不符合英国信息专员办公室(ICO)公布的适龄设计规范。



ICO的这项适龄设计规范于2020年9月生效,规定在线服务必须遵循15条标准,以保护儿童的在线数据和隐私。该规范适用于针对英国18岁以下儿童的所有服务,还要求在线服务进行数据保护影响评估,并为儿童提供透明和量身定制的隐私政策。



Comparitech研究了总共402款Google Play Store儿童应用,IT之家将主要数据汇总如下:


·96款应用(占比23.9%)的隐私政策不符合ICO设计规范


·这96款应用累计下载量超过3.83亿次,并获得了Google Play的“专家认可”徽章


·22款应用(占比为5.5%)声称不针对儿童,但在应用中涉及了针对儿童的内容,并且具有PEGI 3评级(适合所有年龄段)


·46款应用(占比为11.4%)没有公示儿童特定政策的情况下收集个人数据,或者含糊不清、没有提供明确解释,或者不清楚他们的数据收集做法或第三方共享。


·16款应用程序(占比为4%)在未经父母许可或没有适当的协议的情况下收集数据。


·12款应用程序(占比为3%)本身不收集数据,但与可能收集数据的第三方合作。


谷歌随后回应道:


Google Play非常重视保护儿童,平台制定了严苛的政策和流程,并在相关功能上投入了大量资源。


针对儿童的应用程序必须遵守我们的Google Play家庭政策,该政策要求开发者遵守所有相关法律和所有Play开发者计划政策,并施加额外的隐私、货币化和内容限制。


开发者有责任确保他们的应用程序符合所有相关法律,并对儿童等目标受众负责。
