What this bill does
The Digital Age Assurance Act of 2026, introduced in the Senate, would require providers of operating systems to ask users for their date of birth when creating an account. This information would then be used to generate "age bracket data," classifying users into age groups such as under 13, 13-15, 16, or 17.
Application developers, website operators, and browser providers would be required to request this age bracket data from operating system providers. This data would serve as the primary indicator of a user's age for these entities, helping them comply with age-related laws or their own policies. The bill also includes provisions prohibiting targeted advertising and data monetization of children.
