Windows.Media.ContentRestrictions Namespace

The Family Safety Content API allows content provider apps to consume Family Safety’s settings, and create fun and appropriate experiences for children.

Content restriction settings are divided into two categories: content browsing and content consumption.

The content browsing age controls which content is presented in an app’s content catalog (e.g. a movie app’s movie/TV list). This shields children from content with unsafe thumbnail pictures or descriptions, such as adult movies.

Content consumption settings define whether a specific piece of content can be consumed. That is, whether an app can be installed, or a movie can be watched. If content is blocked for consumption, the child is given an option to ask for a parental override.
