Introducing TikTok's Updated Safety Center

TikTok has launched its updated Safety Center to provide support for digital safety and security conversations among families. The center includes new guides and resources aimed at helping parents understand how TikTok works and empowering them to create the best experience for their family.

The Guardian's Guide to TikTok

The Guardian's Guide to TikTok is a comprehensive resource that covers topics such as getting started on the platform, safety and privacy tools, and additional resources to address common online safety concerns. It also highlights the Family Pairing features that allow parents to engage in their teenager's online life.

Bullying Prevention

TikTok recognizes the importance of creating a safe environment where people can express themselves without fear of bullying or harassment. To address this issue, TikTok has developed a bullying prevention guide in collaboration with experts from the Cyberbullying Research Center, Net Family News, and TikTok's US Content Advisory Council. The guide provides information on identifying bullying, tools to combat harassment, and local resources for those who are being bullied.

Safety Ecosystem

TikTok's approach to safety encompasses policies, products, and partnerships. The Safety Center now offers parents and guardians a deeper understanding of TikTok's safety ecosystem through new videos that explain the platform's approach to safety, Community Guidelines, and available resources.

Collaboration with Safety Experts

TikTok believes in the power of collaboration and has established relationships with leading safety experts. The updated Safety Center connects users to information about TikTok and resources on various topics, including media literacy and digital well-being. These resources have been developed in partnership with organizations such as the National Association for Media Literacy Education (NAMLE), the National Eating Disorder Association (NEDA), Connect Safely, the Family Online Safety Institute, and the National PTA.

Commitment to Safety

The Safety Center is an essential part of TikTok's commitment to supporting families on the platform. It is easily accessible to everyone and TikTok continuously invests in new ways to maintain a safe and welcoming environment. For more information, please visit TikTok's Safety Center.
