Data protection in children's best interests:what's at stake?

How can children’s best interests be addressed through data protection? The Digital Futures Commission works towards embedding children’s best interests in the design of the digital world, in which data and their usage are of paramount importance. Of importance to our work is the Age-Appropriate Design Code (the Code), the first of its kind in the world to take into account the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC).
