Freiwillige Selbstkontrolle
Freiwillige Selbstkontrolle (FSK) is a self-regulatory organization in Germany that focuses on the media and entertainment industry. It aims to ensure that content is appropriate for various age groups by providing age ratings for films, video games, and other media. This helps consumers make informed choices about what to watch or play.
The FSK operates independently and collaborates with industry stakeholders to establish guidelines and standards. Its ratings are based on criteria such as violence, language, and sexual content. By promoting responsible media consumption, the FSK contributes to the protection of children and adolescents in Germany.
