What Is COPPA and How You Can Build a Robust COPPA-Compliant Security Program with Alibaba Cloud

This blog allows our customers to understand how the products and services offered by Alibaba Cloud can be used in a robust COPPA-compliant security program.

What Is COPPA?

The Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act, more commonly known as COPPA, is a law enacted by the FTC and the US Congress that governs how websites, apps, and online operators collect, manage, and use personal information from kids under the age of 13. With vast amounts of data made available in today's digital age, COPPA was introduced to protect the privacy of children by requesting parental consent before any personal information can be collected or used.

Building a Robust COPPA-Compliant Security Program with Alibaba Cloud

The Alibaba Cloud service is directed to a general audience, but Alibaba Cloud appreciates that protection of covered information and compliance with Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) can be a shared responsibility between each cloud customer and Alibaba Cloud.

Each customer’s compliance profile and approach will vary based on the Alibaba Cloud services deployed and the customer’s configured security settings thereof. Achieving and maintaining COPPA compliance includes establishing and maintaining reasonable procedures to protect the confidentiality, security and integrity (CSI) of personal information collected from children. The elements for consideration of an integrated CSI approach include:

Alibaba Cloud Security Governance: General information technology controls performed by Alibaba Cloud as part of normal business operations
Alibaba Cloud Security Solutions: Products that provide specific security support and primary protections, which combine with Alibaba Cloud management solutions to provide comprehensive solutions and therefore allow for a security-conducive cloud environment.
Alibaba Cloud Management Solutions: Technology platforms that provide assistance to customers in achieving security requirements.
Customer Responsibilities: Security configurations and settings for Alibaba Cloud solutions and institution-specific processes for accessing, storing, processing, transmitting, or otherwise handling covered information, performed by customer employees or on customer systems.
