Google’s top political officer, Kate Charlet, has lauded Denmark for its responsible approach to age verification, particularly for young people accessing online services. The solution allows individuals to confirm their age without revealing other personal details, a move praised for its focus on privacy.

During a visit to Copenhagen, Charlet stated that Denmark is a “true leader” in developing solutions that protect user privacy while enabling age verification.

Google has expressed support for the Danish app designed for this purpose. The app prioritizes data protection, ensuring that personal information is shared securely.

This endorsement from a major tech company highlights the growing importance of age verification methods that balance user privacy with online safety requirements. The Danish model could serve as an example for other countries seeking to implement similar solutions.
