TikTok settles children's privacy suit
TikTok and its parent company, ByteDance, have agreed to pay $400 million to settle a U.S. lawsuit related to collecting children's data without parental consent. The settlement includes an immediate payment of $300 million, with an additional $100 million to be paid after a court decision overturns a previous regulation requiring consent for data collection. This is one of the largest settlements obtained in cases involving online children's privacy protection. The Department of Justice and the Federal Trade Commission filed the lawsuit in 2024, accusing TikTok of endangering the safety of millions of children through unlawful data collection practices, violating the Children's Privacy Protection Law, which prohibits collecting information from children under 13 without parental permission.
