Relating to: app stores and app developers and providing a penalty.

SB 937 requires app stores to verify the age category of users (e.g., child, teen, adult) when accounts are created and implement age verification methods. For minors (under 18), it mandates linking their accounts to a parent account and obtaining parental consent before purchases, app downloads, or in-app transactions. App stores must also notify parents of significant app changes (like updated content descriptions or new in-app purchases) and provide clear disclosures about data collection. This bill directly affects app stores, developers (who must provide age ratings and content descriptions), and parents of minors using mobile apps.
