UK ONLINE SAFETY ACT
The Online Safety Act (the “Act”) is a UK law designed to protect both children and adults online from illegal and harmful content online. It places duties on social media platforms, search services, and other online services to reduce the risks of illegal content, remove it promptly when it appears, and implement safeguards against harmful content.
A central principle of the Act is the duty of care: platforms must take proportionate steps to protect users from harm and demonstrate accountability in the way they design, operate, and moderate their services.

These measures are reviewed on a regular basis to reflect regulatory requirements and best practices in online safety.
