Track your COPPA compliance
COPPA sets requirements that applies to online services that collect personal information from children under 13, and meeting them means working through many specific obligations. This interactive checklist helps you track your COPPA progress, so you can see what is done, what remains, and where the gaps are rather than holding it all in your head.
What the checklist covers
It covers COPPA requirements including verifiable parental consent, the privacy notice, data minimisation for children, and handling of collected information. Working through a structured checklist is far more reliable than an ad hoc review, because it ensures each requirement is considered rather than only the ones you happen to remember. It turns a large, intimidating regulation into a concrete list of things to confirm, which is exactly how compliance work is made manageable.
A tool, not legal advice
This is a practical aid for understanding and tracking requirements, not legal advice, and regulations change and vary by circumstance. Confirm your obligations with a qualified professional before relying on any assessment. It runs entirely in your browser, so nothing you enter is uploaded, which matters when the input describes your compliance posture.
