Strengthen Responsible Child-Directed Marketing & Privacy Practices

Who are CARU Supporters?

The Children's Advertising Review Unit (CARU) helps companies comply with laws and guidelines that protect children under age 13 from deceptive or inappropriate advertising and ensure that, in an online environment, children's data is collected and handled responsibly.

CARU Supporters take an active role in creating new guidance and best practices to help meet regulatory and compliance goals.

CARU Supporters have the opportunity, often in a Chatham House Rule environment, to discuss challenges with CARU and other likeminded brands, staying ahead of legal developments and proactively strengthening child-direct marketing and privacy practices.
