TikTok's Under 13 Experience policy now also covers 13-year-olds in Florida and uses 'users' instead of 'Children'
The children's privacy section was updated on July 15, 2026. The main substantive change is that the Under 13 Experience now also covers 13-year-olds in Florida. Most other edits replace 'Children' with 'users of this experience'. The automatic data collection, the sensitive-data note and the messaging and profile limits were already in the old version.
