| 67. | In addition to the obligations set out in Article 27(1) of Regulation (EU) 2022/2065, and for providers of VLOPs and VLOSEs the enhanced due diligence obligations laid down in Articles 34, 35 and 38 of that Regulation, the Commission considers that providers of online platforms accessible to minors should: (a) Ensure that any settings and information provided to minors about their recommender systems, including but not limited to their Terms and Conditions, are presented in child-friendly and accessible ways, adapted to the age and evolving maturity of the child, and in a language they could understand (see Sections 6.4 on Online interface design and other tools and Section 8.4 on Transparency for more details). (b) Meaningfully explain why each specific piece of content was recommended to them, including information about the parameters used and the user signals collected for that specific recommendation. (c) Offer minors, in an accessible way and tailored to child-friendly language and design, the options to modify or influence the parameters of their recommender systems by, for example, allowing them to select content categories and activities they are most or least interested in including explanations in child-friendly language. This should be offered during the account creation process and regularly throughout the minor’s time on the platform. These preferences should directly influence the recommendations provided by the system, ensuring that they align more closely with the minor’s age and best interests (67).
