Collaboration between leading regulators is aimed to share best practices and knowledge in tackling risks that children face online. The arrangement strengthens cooperation on the protection of minors online between the Commission’ services and ANPD, with special attention paid to transparency obligations for digital platforms, risk assessment and mitigation measures, and technological cooperation on algorithms and artificial intelligence. The arrangement will facilitate information exchange, including technical expert dialogues. It will, for instance, enable both authorities to share best practices, conduct joint studies, and cooperate on research projects.
The Commission services have signed similar administrative arrangements with the UK's Ofcom and Australia's eSafety Commissioner. The three regulators launched a trilateral cooperation group on age assurance. More recently, the Commission has signed an arrangement with Japan's Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications. The Commission remains committed to expanding global collaboration with leading national regulators to ensure a fair and safe digital future.
