What is “made for kids” content?
--------------------------------
According to the FTC’s guidance on the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), a video is made for kids if:
• Children are the primary audience.
• Children are not the primary audience, but the video is still directed to children based on factors such as the subject matter of the video, whether the video has an emphasis on kids characters, themes, toys or games, and more.
Note: We don’t automatically consider all “made for kids” content appropriate for kids. We have other systems in place to determine the appropriateness of content on YouTube. Learn more about appropriateness on YouTube by exploring frequently asked questions.

---------------------------------------
Ads in certain categories may still appear on content marked as “made for kids”. Viewers of “made for kids” content may see an ad bumper before and after a video ad is shown. This helps alert them when an advertisement is starting and ending.
