The COPPA 2.0 Readiness Report: How 16,000 Children's Websites Score on Safety, Accessibility, and Trust
We analyzed 16,213 children's websites — from early childhood education to kids' shopping to children's TV — across WCAG accessibility, EEAT trust, readability, GARM brand safety, and tracking technology adoption. 69.5% fail basic accessibility checks. Children's clothing sites have an 11.8% WCAG pass rate and a 58.8% failure rate. Virtually no children's sites (0.01%) use a consent management platform. With the COPPA 2.0 compliance deadline 44 days away and five states enforcing age-appropriate design codes, the children's web is not ready.
