The commission will examine whether the platform is taking sufficient measures to protect minors, and will also examine other alleged violations of the Electronic Services Act (DSA).
These requirements include advertising transparency, researcher access to data, and managing the risks associated with addictive design and harmful content.
“The protection of minors is an enforcement priority for the Digital Services Act. As a platform reaching millions of children and teenagers, TikTok must fully comply with the law and play a special role in protecting minors online,” EU Commissioner for the Internal Market Thierry Breton said in a statement.
If TikTok is found guilty of violating DSA rules, the social network will face a fine of up to 6% of its global turnover.
A TikTok spokesperson told CNN that "the company is the first to implement features to protect teens and prevent those under 13 from accessing the platform."
The DSA requires companies deemed to be “very large online platforms” to comply with strict regulations regarding the content they host.
The main goal of the law is to create a safer online environment. It affected 19 digital giants, including services from Meta, Google, Apple and many others.
