“We have invested heavily to make sure that TikTok remains a safe platform for users. We also released our Community Guidelines in Urdu to bridge the gap between the users and the platform,” said Jamin Tan. “Since safety is top priority for us, we introduced a multitude of safety controls to protect the experience of our younger users , especially the Family Pairing feature. Age gate is the first step in ensuring the right content reaches the right people,” added Jamin Tan.

safe content. It’s good to see such responsible behavior from a platform,” said Jehan Ara.

audience has increased. The penetration of TikTok is so deep that it goes into the remotest areas
of Pakistan. I deliver knowledge through my comedy content and try to educate masses. It
spreads so quickly,” said content creator Junaid Akram.
