BLUE BELL, Pa., Aug. 01, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Rego Payment Architectures, Inc. (“REGO”) (OTCQB: RPMT), announces its official support of the Kids Online Safety and Privacy Act (KOSPA) that has recently passed the Senate.

KOSPA is a landmark piece of legislation aimed at enhancing the safety and privacy of children online. The bill mandates that technology companies implement robust safety measures to protect minors from online harms such as exploitation, bullying, and exposure to inappropriate content. This legislation holds companies accountable for their product design features that impact children's behavior, ensuring that the welfare of young users is a top priority. The legislation also provides important privacy updates to the Child Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA).

"I founded REGO with the primary intent to provide a safe environment for children and their parents to be financially active through their own financial institution,” stated Peter S. Pelullo, CEO and co-founder of REGO. “We are fully supportive of the House passage of KOSPA (KOSA and COPPA 2.0) so the President can sign it into law, as it ensures that all technology companies will now be legally required to prioritize the safety and privacy of children online above all other goals."

REGO is a leading provider of a family digital wallet platform that allows children to engage in financial activities under the watchful eye of their parents. Certified by PRIVO for compliance with COPPA (Children's Online Privacy Protection Act) and GDPR (General Data Privacy Regulation), REGO ensures the highest standards of data privacy and security. Since its inception, REGO has focused on creating a secure environment for children’s financial literacy, offering tools that help kids learn to manage money while parents oversee their activities. Financial institutions can leverage REGO’s platform as a white-labeled product and integrate it into their existing applications.

REGO was invited by the House Commerce Innovation, Data, and Commerce Subcommittee of the U.S. House of Representatives, to provide testimony on April 27, 2023, on the importance of stronger regulations to protect children’s financial data and privacy. REGO’s Senior Advisor for Cybersecurity and Privacy, Donald Codling, who worked in the FBI for over 23 years focusing on international cybercrime and national security, provided the testimony for this hearing. “This ‘perfect storm’ of financial and technology trends is exacerbated by the fact that federal laws and regulations have not kept up with the advent of a cashless society,” stated Mr. Codling. “It must be the responsibility of companies to take steps to protect our children’s privacy…In my experience, no other financial technology company has a child’s financial data and privacy protection so integrated in its foundational strategy other than REGO.”

At the time of this writing, the KOSPA has successfully passed the Senate and will proceed to the House of Representatives. This legislation marks a significant step forward in ensuring the online safety of children and establishing a safer digital environment for future generations.
