TikTok child data protection inadequate, Canadian privacy officials say
TikTok's efforts to stop children using the app and protect their personal data have been inadequate, a Canadian investigation has found.
Hundreds of thousands of children in the country use TikTok each year despite the firm saying it is not intended for people under the age of 13, according to the findings. The investigation also found TikTok had collected sensitive personal information from "a large number" of Canadian children and used it for online marketing and content targeting.
