Tennessee HB1723 regulates the use of minors in online content creation, setting age limits, compensation rules, and record-keeping requirements.

Tennessee HB1723 amends state law to regulate the involvement of minors in online content creation. It prohibits minors under fourteen years old from participating in content creation for compensation. Minors aged fourteen to seventeen must receive 100% of the proceeds from their own content. Content creators must compensate minors and maintain records of earnings and content details until the minor turns twenty-one. The bill also mandates the creation of trust accounts for earnings, accessible to minors upon reaching eighteen or being emancipated. Violations incur civil penalties.
