And that reason is to regulate how websites and online assets could gather information from children.

The goal of COPPA is to prevent online marketers from targeting children with deceptive campaigns that extract personal information from children. However, COPPA tries to succeed on this front without overly regulating the internet or suppressing online innovation or business.

COPPA is a federal law that is found at 15 U.S.C. §§ 6501 - 6505 and is enforced by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC). The FTC has issued numerous regulations about COPPA, which can be found at 16 C.F.R. § 312.
