SafeGen Platform Integration & API Pack
SafeGen is Australia's Age-Status Signalling Standard — a privacy-preserving mechanism that enables platforms to meet the Social Media Minimum Age Act and forthcoming duty-of-care obligations without handling identity, biometrics, or date-of-birth data.
The Platform Integration & API Pack provides everything required for a platform to evaluate or implement SafeGen:
- •Age-status API specification
- •Boolean signalling model (MINOR / NOT-MINOR / UNKNOWN)
- •Integration examples for signup, authentication, and sensitive-feature gating
- •Risk, abuse-prevention, and false-negative controls
- •Compliance mapping ("reasonable steps" → SafeGen coverage)
- •Governance and audit model
- •CAMARA-aware telco ingestion logic
- •Roadmap for non-mobile device tagging
This pack is available to platform trust & safety teams, policy teams, engineering teams, and legal/compliance leads.
Why SafeGen Matters to Platforms
1. Zero identity burden
No ID capture. No DOB storage. No biometrics. No images.
2. Telco-anchored, parent-verified
Platforms simply consume the output. They do not adjudicate who is or isn't a child.
3. Regulation-ready
SafeGen satisfies the vast majority of "reasonable steps" under the Australian minimum age law.
4. Low-friction integration
1 API call → 1 boolean response. No UX degradation for adults. No new onboarding barriers.
5. Industry alignment
SafeGen was designed with DIGI's policy positions, eSafety expectations, and global platform risk models in mind.
