GVH Warns Parents About Risks of Digital Games for Children

08.08.2024 | Hungarian competition authority

The Hungarian Competition Authority (GVH) alerts parents to the harmful effects of digital games on children, emphasizing the need for caution and awareness during the summer holiday period.


A growing number of children are engaging with digital games on various devices, raising concerns about age-appropriateness and potential risks. The GVH conducted a comprehensive analysis of the market for games targeting children, highlighting deceptive practices and providing recommendations for parents to protect their children.

The GVH focuses on raising awareness among young people about the dangers in the digital space, especially during the summer when children spend more time online. The authority's Digital Awareness Program aims to educate schools and parents about these risks.

The GVH advises parents to consider the age rating of games, be cautious of manipulative practices in free-to-download games, and set limits on in-game purchases. The authority also recommends using parental control services to manage screen time and ensure safe computer use.
