• A label counts if the artificial intelligence technology you used supplies it automatically or if you add a visual, audio or text-based marking to the material.

• Applies to the provider of an age-restricted social network platform on the list the designated authority sets, whether a legal or natural person, offering services to users in Azerbaijan.
• Do not allow a person who has not completed 16 years of age to create an individual digital account on the platform.
• At account creation apply, in sequence, a declaration of age and a check of that declared age by a request to the user's e-mail address and mobile number and a refundable bank-card debit; for a user aged 16 to 18 the same data is taken from the legal representative to obtain consent.
• Give a legal representative control over the content, advertising and hours of use on the account of a user aged 16 to 18, and provide the functionality that makes that control possible.
• Re-check age when there is reasonable doubt about the declared age, and restrict access to the account immediately when a breach of the age rule is found.
• Do not store the personal data collected to verify age, pass it to third parties or use it for commercial or targeted advertising, and delete it as soon as the verification ends.
• Apply digital solutions that run continuously and intervene within 24 hours of finding content harmful to users aged 16 to 18.
• Report to the designated authority by 15 January each year on compliance with the account-data deletion and safety requirements and on refused account creations.
• Register in Azerbaijan, through a branch or representative office in the case of a foreign legal person, and keep a contact center that accepts requests in the state language.
• Answer the designated authority's requests about these requirements within 5 working days.
• Before the Law enters into force, provide the technical capacity to determine age and inform the designated authority; after it enters into force, restrict access to existing accounts of children under 16 and delete those accounts and their data unless proof of age 16 is provided.
• The Law enters into force twelve months after the day it is published, so none of these duties binds a provider yet.
