HB 1016 Oklahoma House · 2025 Regular Session

Labor; compensation for minors; Internet content; records; trust account; civil action; effective date.

HB 1016 requires content creators who feature minors in compensated online content to set aside earnings in a trust account for the minor’s benefit. It defines when a minor is considered "engaged in content creation" (e.g., appearing in 30%+ of compensated content for 30 days with minimum views or $0.10/view). Content creators must maintain detailed records of minor involvement, earnings, and trust deposits for 21 years. Minors aged 13+ can demand removal of their content from platforms within 7 days of a written request. The law directly affects minors under 18 appearing in online content and the creators who feature them.
