Alongside the appointment of Nolie, Kidoz provided a brief update on recent business developments, emphasizing the ongoing momentum in their kids-safe advertising platform. They highlighted the uptick in regulatory oversight, brand safety requirements, and the demand for privacy-centric solutions in the market. Importantly, Kidoz’s core technology supporting their kids business is now available for privacy-first advertising across broader age segments within mobile gaming through their non-child network, Prado.

Kidoz has also expanded their visibility in capital markets by participating in the DealFlow Discovery Conference and releasing a CEO interview with Small Cap Discoveries. These initiatives have shed light on the company’s strategy, privacy-first infrastructure, and readiness for the upcoming full-year financial reporting. Additionally, Kidoz continues to witness adoption of their Kidoz Privacy Shield, an advertising infrastructure that prioritizes privacy and operates under PRIVO’s FTC-approved COPPA Safe Harbor. This infrastructure has also been awarded the GDPR Kids Privacy Assured Shield, supporting compliant and scalable mobile advertising without relying on personal identifiers. Management at Kidoz views these advancements, coupled with Nolie’s appointment, as pivotal in aligning the company’s commercial strategy with their focus on compliant growth, trusted brand partnerships, and long-term value creation.
