Could YOUTUBERS be FINED $42,000 for NOT SELECTING “Made for Kids”?

All YouTube videos now have to comply with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA). As a creator, you have to mark your videos as “Yes, it’s Made for Kids” or “No, it’s not Made for Kids”.

Important: As a creator, ALL your videos will have to be marked as “Yes, it’s Made for Kids” or “No, it’s not Made for Kids” (not just new uploads).

1) Visit https://studio.youtube.com/ (or YouTube Studio app)
2) Select ‘Videos’ on the left.
3) Click a video and select “Yes, it’s Made for Kids” or “No, it’s not Made for Kids”.
4) Save.
5) Go through all videos.

Tip: Use the “Upload video (beta)” tool so you can mark each upload.

Whilst this seems opinion-based, unfortunately, the penalty is supposedly high if you incorrectly mark your video.

YouTube introduced “Made for Kids”, so kids video ads won’t have tracking data (so no personalized ads) to protect their privacy and safety online. They also plan to use machine learning to automatically mark videos as “Made for Kids”.
