Keep the kids safe with Parental Controls.
Easy as.
The Broadcasting Standards Authority sets out content classifications, advisory symbols and time-bands to make it easier for parents and guardians to decide what's appropriate viewing and when.
You can find out all about that on BSA's safe viewing website.
Content classifications (G, PG, M, 16, 18) and advisory symbols (V, L, S, C) can be found across the Freeview TV Guides and programme listings. These are supplied by broadcasters in accordance with the BSA.
Did you know?
You can check the classifications for shows and movies on the Freeview TV Guide online or on your TV to see if they're suitable for your kiddos. Programmes intended for mature audiences are typically tagged with advisory symbols (V, L, S, C) or classified as M, 16 or 18.
Parental Controls on your TV (sometimes called Child Locks or Parental Locks) can be another easy way to safeguard your little ones from inappropriate content.
Using Parental Control
Parental Control is a feature on most TVs, set-top boxes and PVRs approved by Freeview. It lets you block programmes of certain ratings so they're not shown on your TV unless the correct passcode is entered.
Setting up Parental Control is quick and simple. Learn more about it to safeguard your tamariki even when you're not there.
