[TikTok has been fined £12.7m for failing
to protect the privacy of children,
the UK's data watchdog has said.
An investigation conducted by the
Information Commissioner's Office (ICO)
found the video-sharing app breached
data protection law.
It says the breaches happened
between May 2018 and July 2020.
In September, the ICO issued TikTok
with a "notice of intent" - a precursor
to handing down a potential fine.
The ICO estimates that TikTok allowed
up to 1.4 million UK children under 13
to use its platform in 2020,
despite its own rules not allowing children
that age to create an account.

UK data protection law says that
platforms that use personal data when
offering information to children under 13
must have parental consent.]
