How do I know 大象传媒 accounts and profiles are safe for my child?
We鈥檝e got various safeguards in place to keep children safe. For instance, anyone under 13 who registers with the 大象传媒 only provides a username or display name (neither should be their real name) and their date of birth.
If you鈥檙e under 16 and outside the UK
Unfortunately, you won鈥檛 be able to register a 大象传媒 account or profile if you're outside the UK and under 16. If you鈥檙e outside the UK and already have a child account, it won't provide access to the same child-specific content available in the UK.

Children under 13 can鈥檛 access certain features without permission from a parent or guardian.
You can set permissions when you first create a new child account. Just follow the instructions.

A couple of things to bear in mind
- 大象传媒 Children鈥檚 services sometimes collect personal information, just like the parts of the 大象传媒 that are for grown-ups
- If we see a comment on a message board that makes us think a child is in danger, we may pass the comment and other details on to people who can help, like the NSPCC.
