Session 4 – UK Online Safety Act: Key Compliance Challenges for Gaming Companies
The UK’s new Online Safety Act (OSA) will have a material impact on a huge number of gaming companies of all sizes across the world.
The OSA has a broad territorial scope, meaning you don’t have to be based in the UK for it to apply, and will reshape the UK’s rules around managing illegal content online and protecting children online. It also has attention-grabbing penalties – up to 10% of annual global turnover and criminal liability provisions for senior managers.
Join Cooley partners Bryony Hurst and Leo Spicer-Phelps for a session that will explore:
- Whom the OSA applies to.
- When you need to comply.
- What you need to do to comply.
For more information, please contact Jana Laster.
