ACCS 1:2025 Certification Scheme for Age Assurance Systems and Components 4.7: Define the contexts of use: sectors, channels, use type and jurisdictions

What does 4.7 require?

For each system or component the client defines the contexts of use for which certification is sought, at least the sectors served (retail and convenience stores, licensed hospitality venues, gambling operators, regulated entertainment and social media or content services, body modification studios, or other sectors), the channels (offline, online or both), whether results are single-use or reusable, and the jurisdictions of deployment as countries, regional groupings or global. These are documented in the agreement and carried onto the certificate and schedule; where several contexts apply the conformity assessment body decides whether testing, analysis and audit effort run separately or together, weighing sector rules, local regulation and risk of harm.
