UAE restricts social media use for under 15s
The UAE Cabinet has issued a decision regulating children's access to social media platforms to protect them from digital risks. The minimum age for use is set at 15 years old. Children under this age are prohibited from creating accounts or fully engaging with platforms, while those between 15 and 16 years old are allowed to use them under special protective measures, which include content regulation and usage time limits. The decision requires platforms to implement effective age verification mechanisms and to adhere to data protection and privacy standards. Relevant authorities are tasked with monitoring compliance and intervening in case of violations, to ensure a safer digital environment for children.
