+
+<p>
+  In several weeks, a new family-focused experience on Google Play will give
+  users new ways to browse, search, and discover high quality apps and games
+  for their families.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+  To support a more family-friendly store, developers are invited to opt-in
+  family-focused apps and games to the new Designed for Families program. Apps
+  that meet the <a href=
+  "https://support.google.com/googleplay/android-developer/answer/6184502">program
+  requirements</a> will be shown in the new family experience so that
+  parents can find suitable, trusted, high-quality apps and games more easily.
+</p>
+
+<img src="{@docRoot}distribute/images/about-dff-sm.jpg">
+
+<p>
+  Opt-in your apps and games today using the tools and processes you currently
+  use to manage your apps in the Developer Console. Your apps in the program
+  can benefit from enhanced discoverability in addition to maintaining their
+  existing categories, rankings, and reviews elsewhere on the Google Play
+  store.
+</p>
+
+<h2 id="elibibility">Eligibility</h2>
+
+<p>
+  Apps in the family-friendly experience on Google Play will be more
+  discoverable by parents and families, who expect the apps to be age
+  appropriate. The Designed for Families program is designed to be inclusive of
+  apps that are made for kids as well as those that can be enjoyed by the
+  entire family. To address this audience, there are specific guidelines and
+  policies your apps need to meet, which will be assessed in an app content
+  review.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+  Make sure that you're familiar with the policies that your app must comply
+  with. These include <a href=
+  "http://play.google.com/about/developer-content-policy.html">content
+  policies</a>, the <a href=
+  "http://play.google.com/about/developer-distribution-agreement.html">Developer
+  Distribution Agreement</a>, and the <a href=
+  "https://play.google.com/intl/ALL_us/about/families/developer-distribution-agreement-addendum.html">
+  Designed for Families DDA Addendum</a>.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+  Your app must also meet the <a href=
+  "https://support.google.com/googleplay/android-developer/answer/6184502">Designed
+  for Families program requirements</a> listed in the Google Play Developer
+  Help Center.

+  </dd>
+
+  <dt>
+    Where do I disclose my app’s interactive features? Why are you collecting
+    this information?
+  </dt>
+
+  <dd>
+    Interactive feature disclosures are part of the content rating
+    questionnaire. You have an opportunity to review your disclosures as
+    part of the Designed for Families program opt-in flow. We collect this
+    information so that users can make informed choices when evaluating your
+    app.

+
+  <dt>
+    What is COPPA?
+  </dt>
+
+  <dd>
+    COPPA is the Federal Trade Commission’s (FTC) Child Online Privacy
+    Protection Rule. More details are available on the <a
+    href="http://www.ftc.gov/tips-advice/business-center/guidance/complying-coppa-frequently-asked-questions">

+
+  <dt>
+    Do I need to provide an up-to-date privacy policy and where do I do that?
+  </dt>
+
+  <dd>
+    Yes, you need to provide a link to a persistent privacy policy on your
+    app’s store listing and confirm your compliance with local privacy statutes
+    in the Developer Console. To add or review your privacy policy, choose your
+    app in the Developer Console and then scroll to the bottom of the
+    <strong>Store Listing</strong> section.
+  </dd>
+
+  <dt>
+    How many age groups can I select?
+  </dt>
+
+  <dd>
+    You can select up to two adjacent age groups. Age groups are: Ages 5 &

+    comprised of children and older audiences, you must select the <em>General
+    Audience</em> category.

+
+  <dt>
+    How many content categories can I select in the Designed for Families
+    program?
+  </dt>

+<dl>
+  <dt>
+    Will it take longer for my app to get published if I opt-in to the Designed
+    for Families program?
+  </dt>
+
+  <dd>
+    When you opt-in to Designed for Families, Google Play reviews your app to
+    confirm that it is appropriate for families. Assuming your app complies with all program
+    requirements, we expect that publishing time should not take any longer
+    than normal; however, there may be a delay in publishing the app if it is
+    rejected during the Designed for Families review. 
+  </dd>
+
+  <dt>
+    What happens if my app is rejected from the Designed for Families program?
+  </dt>
+
+  <dd>
+    If your app is rejected from the Designed for Families program, we’ll
+    indicate why in the Developer Console and in a detailed email. You’ll have
+    an opportunity to correct the issues and resubmit your app to the program,
+    or change your opt-in response. Note that if you have an existing app that
+    is live on Google Play, only your app update will be rejected (your app
+    will remain live on the Play store). If you’ve submitted a new app to the
+    Designed for Families program that does not meet the requirements, your
+    entire app submission will be rejected and the app will not be published on
+    Play. You can then address the identified issue(s) and resubmit the app for
+    the Designed for Families program or opt-out of the program.
+  </dd>
+
+  <dt>
+    What happens if my app is found to be non-compliant with Designed for
+    Families program requirements after it has been published?
+  </dt>
+
+  <dd>
+    Your app may be removed or suspended from the Google Play Store, not only
+    the Designed for Families program. Removed apps can follow the same
+    remedies as rejected apps. Suspended apps can be appealed using the
+    developer appeal process.
+  </dd>
+
+  <dt>
+    If I opt-in to the Designed for Families program, can I opt-out later on?
+  </dt>
+
+  <dd>
+    Yes, you may opt-out of the program at any time. Please note that by opting
+    out you would lose your placement in the new family-friendly experience as
+    well as the other benefits of the program.
+  </dd>
+
+  <dt>
+    What happens when I update my app after it has been accepted into the
+    program?
+  </dt>
+
+  <dd>
+    Apps that are part of the Designed for Families program need to maintain
+    compliance with the eligibility requirements at all times. If you need to
+    edit the Designed for Families metadata associated with your app, please go
+    to the Pricing & Distribution section of the Google Play Developer Console
+    to edit this information. If updating your app results in you changing your
+    target audience, we recommend that you alert the users who already
+    have your app installed.

+    child-focused, i.e. that target the following age groups: Ages 5 & Under,
+    Ages 6 to 8, or Ages 9 to 12 <strong>may not</strong> use Google+ Sign-in
+    or Google Play Game services as the login experience for their
+    application.
+
+    <p>
+      Apps that participate in Designed for Families that target both children and
+      older audiences, can use Google+ Sign-in or Google Play Game services as an
+      <strong>optional</strong> feature. Child users must be able to access the app
+      or game in its entirety without signing into Google+ or Google Play Game services.

+    My app is opted-in to Google Play for Education and has Google sign-in integration

+

+    Apps that participate in Google Play for Education may use Google sign-in for

+page.metaDescription=Join Designed for Families in just a few simple steps.
+
+@jd:body
+
+<p>
+  If you're building an app designed for kids and families, there are a few
+  things you need to do <em>before</em> you’ll be ready to opt-in to the Designed for
+  Families program:
+</p>
+
+<ul>
+  <li>Complete the content rating questionnaire for your app and meet an ESRB
+  rating of Everyone or Everyone 10+ rating
+  </li>
+
+  <li>Add a privacy policy link to your app’s <strong>Store Listing</strong>
+  page.
+  </li>
+
+  <li>Make sure your app meets all the <a href=
+  "https://support.google.com/googleplay/android-developer/answer/6184502">Designed
+  for Families program requirements.</a>
+  </li>
+</ul>
+
+<p>
+  Now that your app is ready to publish, you can opt-in to Designed for
+  Families directly from the <a href=
+  "https://play.google.com/apps/publish/">Developer Console</a>. Opt-in means
+  that you want your app to be made available on the new family-friendly
+  experience on Google Play in addition to the category you’ve selected on
+  the Google Play Store.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+  Opt-in also confirms that your app complies with <a href=
+  "http://play.google.com/about/developer-content-policy.html">Google Play
+  Developer Program Policies</a> and the <a href=
+  "http://play.google.com/about/developer-distribution-agreement.html">Developer
+  Distribution Agreement</a>, including the <a href=
+  "https://play.google.com/intl/ALL_us/about/families/developer-distribution-agreement-addendum.html">
+  Designed for Families DDA Addendum</a>. If you are not familiar with these
+  policy documents or the Addendum, make sure to read them before opting-in.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+  Once you're ready, here's how to opt-in to Designed for Families for a specific app:
+</p>
+
+<ol>
+<li>In the Developer Console <strong>All Applications</strong> page, click the app you want to
+  opt-in. Under Pricing and Distribution, scroll down to find <strong>Designed for
+  Families</strong> and the opt-in checkbox.<img src="/images/gp-dff-optin.png" style=
+  "border:2px solid #ddd;margin:1em 0;">
+  </li>
+
+  <li>Start the opt-in flow and confirm that your app meets the eligibility
+  requirements.</li>
+  <li>If your app has ads, confirm that it meets the ads policy.
+  <img src="/images/gp-dff-appinfo.png"
+  style="border:2px solid #ddd;margin:1em 0;"></li>
+  <li>Choose your target age groups from: Ages 5 & Under, Ages 6 to 8, Ages 9
+  to 12, or General Audience (for apps which target children and older
+  audiences). If your app targets more than one age group, you can choose up to
+  two adjacent age groups. Apps with an ESRB 10+ rating can only choose an
+  age target of 9-12 or General Audience.
+  </li>
+
+  <li>Choose a category for your app for the new family-focused experience on
+  Google Play. Your app will also be discoverable in its existing category in
+  Google Play.</li>
+  <li>Review and agree to the linked documents and then click
+  <strong>Opt-In</strong>. Finally, click <strong>Submit update</strong> on the
+  Pricing & Distribution page to publish or update your app.
+  </li>
+</ol>
+
+<p>
+  Once you opt-in your app, it will be thoroughly reviewed before being
+  accepted into the Designed for Families program.
+</p>
+
+<p class="note">
+  <strong>Note</strong>: Published apps in the Designed for Families program
+  are also available to all users on Google Play. 
+</p>
+
+<p>
+  If you opt-in an app that you're publishing for the first time and it doesn't
+  meet the Designed for Families program requirements, it won't be made available
+  on Google Play until <strong>either</strong> you update the app to meet the
+  program requirements <strong>or</strong> you uncheck the opt-in box and pass
+  Google Play's standard review process.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+  If you opt-in an app that's already published on Google Play and it doesn't
+  meet the program requirements, it will remain available to all users but won't
+  be added to the new family experience until you update the app to meet the
+  program requirements.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+  If you publish an update to an app that's opted-in to Designed for Families,
+  the app update needs to pass the Designed for Families review before it will
+  become available to all users on Google Play.</p>
