Pixalate’s Trust and Safety Advisory Board’s manual reviews of apps under COPPA are now easier to access via a new searchable library housed on the Manual Reviews for Mobile and CTV Page.
The Manual Review of CTV & Mobile Apps under COPPA blog series was launched late 2022 to increase transparency and educate developers, marketers, and privacy advocates regarding the application of the COPPA Rule factors to the mobile and CTV app ecosystem. The manual reviews bolster Pixalate’s automated app assessment under the COPPA Rule methodology.
To date, the Trust and Safety Advisory Board has published 80+ app reviews and continues to publish new ones weekly. The new library allows readers to search for an app by title and filter by app store including Google Play Store, Apple App Store, Roku, and Amazon Fire TV. Pixalate’s Media Ratings Terminal’s App Insights page features a “Teacher Reviewed” ticker linking to the app’s manual review when available.
Each app review is written by the Pixalate Trust & Safety Advisory Board, a group of educators who have been trained to evaluate apps based on the COPPA Rule factors. The reviews include the app title, bundle ID or app ID, developer name, screenshots of the app, link to the privacy policy if detected, and a description of which COPPA Rule factors applied to their assessment of the app’s target audience.
