Not every corner of the internet is built with kids in mind. .KiDS is. It's the only domain extension in the world with a content policy behind it, built around the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child and enforced by the registry itself. If you're building something for children, with children, or on behalf of children, .KiDS gives you a web address that comes with real, built in protections most extensions never even think about.

Safety Isn't An Add On

The only domain extension with a safety policy built in.

Anyone can register a .com and put anything on it. .KiDS works differently. Every domain under this extension is required to meet a set of Guiding Principles designed to keep the space safe for children, and the registry actually enforces it:

• 🛡️ Built on the UNCRC: The .KiDS Guiding Principles are grounded in the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child, so the standard isn't just a marketing claim. It's a real policy with real teeth.
• 🚫 Explicit content isn't allowed: Explicit sexuality, violence, substance abuse, and profanity are prohibited across every .KiDS domain, no exceptions.
• 👶 Privacy protections for young visitors: Registrants are required to protect the privacy of children who visit their site, not just promise to.
• 🚨 A real reporting and takedown process: If a .KiDS domain violates the Guiding Principles, the registry can suspend it, with an appeals process in place to keep things fair.
• 🔤 Clean by name, not just by content: The rules even apply to the domain name itself. Profanity or inappropriate language isn't allowed in the name you register, either.

Who .KiDS Is For

Anyone building something for kids, or about them.

This is the one extension made specifically for the corner of the internet where kids actually spend their time. If your work touches children in any way, .KiDS was made with you in mind:

• 👨‍👩‍👧 Parents & Families: Build a site, blog, or resource hub for your family that's automatically part of a safer, kid focused space online.
• 🍎 Educators & Schools: Give students and families a learning resource on a domain that signals safety before they even click.
• 🎨 Young Content Creators: Whether it's a channel, a blog, or a portfolio, .KiDS gives young creators a home base built for their audience.
• 🧸 Toy, Game & Entertainment Brands: Show parents and kids alike that your brand takes online safety as seriously as they do.
• 📚 Children's Publishers & Authors: Give your books, characters, or series a digital home that fits the audience you're actually writing for.
• 🤲 Nonprofits & Child Advocacy Organizations: Put your mission front and center with a domain that reflects the population you serve.

What You're Agreeing To

A domain that comes with real responsibility.

Registering a .KiDS domain means agreeing to follow the .KiDS Guiding Principles for as long as you own it. This isn't fine print you can skip. It's the whole point of the extension, and it's worth understanding before you register:

• 📋 You agree to the Guiding Principles: Every .KiDS registrant agrees to follow the official Guiding Principles set by the registry, which cover both content and conduct.
• 🔞 Certain content is off limits: Explicit sexuality, violence, substance abuse, profanity, and content promoting alcohol or tobacco use by children are all prohibited on .KiDS sites.
• ⚖️ Illegal and exploitative content is banned: The Guiding Principles also prohibit content related to child labor, trafficking, or the use of children as soldiers.
• 🔒 Visitor privacy has to be protected: If children visit your site, you're expected to safeguard their privacy and personal information.
• ⏳ Violations can mean suspension: Domains that break the Guiding Principles can be reported and suspended by the registry, though an appeals process exists to make things right.
