If they support personalized recommendations at all for children's accounts or on youtube kids, then they are clearly in violation of the law. Going to youtubekids.com, it makes parents (the age check is a 1st grade arithmetic question) agree to this, so they're clearly in violation of the law according to your Paul Lekas quote: We also use this information to offer users personalized content. We associate an identifier that's unique to the app with the videos your child has watched and terms they've searched for to recommend content likely to be of interest to them, subject to the controls described below. We use unique identifiers to provide contextual advertising, including ad frequency capping. The app does not allow interest-based advertising or remarketing. YouTube Kids does not allow your child to share personal information with third parties or make it publicly available. But then later, they make it clear that they also don't allow your child to avoid sharing personal information with third parties: For external processing We may provide individual user information to our affiliates or other trusted businesses or persons to process it for us, based on our instructions and in compliance with our Privacy Policy and any other appropriate confidentiality and security measures. They then incorporate additional ToS documents by reference. It's already clear they're violating COPPA according to SIIA, so I'm not going to bother continue reading: You can find additional information about the app in the YouTube Kids Privacy Notice and the Parental Guide. Our Disclosure for Children explains our data processing practices to your child, which we encourage you to review with them. Dated: August 7, 2019
