FTC Action: Robot Toys Collected Children's Location Data Illegally

🔒 The FTC and DOJ have acted against Chinese toy maker Apitor Technology after its robot toys and companion Android app transmitted precise geolocation data about children without parental notice or consent. The company integrated a third-party SDK, JPush, which collected street-level location sufficient to identify homes and routines. Apitor agreed to a settlement with a suspended $500,000 penalty, a permanent ban on collecting sensitive kids’ data without parental consent, and obligations to delete illegally gathered records and submit to monitoring.
