Under the act, a commercial entity that publishes or distributes material on its website, including a social media platform, more than 1/3 of which is sexual material harmful to minors, as defined in the act, shall use reasonable age verification methods to verify that an individual attempting to access the material is 18 years of age or older. A commercial entity or a third party that performs age verification shall not retain any identifying information of the individual. A commercial entity that is required to perform age verification under the act shall post certain notices on its website, as described in the act. The act shall not apply to bona fide news or public interest broadcasts or other media and shall not affect the rights of a news-gathering organization.

If the Attorney General believes that a violation occurred and an action is in the public interest, the Attorney General may commence an action.
