TikTok Fined £1.875M by Ofcom for Inaccurate Child Safety Data

The social media giant failed to provide accurate information on parental controls, disrupting a key transparency report.

Ofcom fined TikTok for inaccuracies in data related to its Family Pairing tool.
The fine was reduced by 25% due to TikTok's cooperation and acceptance of findings.
TikTok's delayed reporting and insufficient data checks were cited as major issues.
The inaccuracies forced Ofcom to amend its child safety transparency report.
TikTok has since implemented improvements to its data governance processes.
