1.1.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The code of conduct is part of the AEB code of ethics regarding commercial communications.<\/span><\/p>\n

The primary purpose of the code of conduct is to contribute to the safeguarding of children\u2019s health and to support balanced nutrition. In addition, we reassure consumers by reacting to their potential comments and complaints promptly.<\/span><\/p>\n

1.2.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Members of the AEB believe that no one knows the needs of children better than their parents, including in regard to food. The right of parents to guide the consumption choices of their children can be realised if children are as unaffected by the direct influence of such advertising as possible. This cannot be controlled by parents, but it is within our power.<\/p>\n

The code of conduct is based on the premise that excessive consumption <\/i>of any food is not recommended for children. The AEB wants to protect minors from the excessive consumption of foods with a high fat, salt and sugar content. Therefore, we want to ensure the correct content and format of audiovisual commercial communications regarding food and nutrients.<\/p>\n

1.3.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Compliance with the code of conduct is obligatory for AEB members and strongly recommended for other media service providers. For non-members of the AEB, joining this best practice is voluntary. In the case of voluntary joining, the joining party commits to following sections 2-6 of the code of conduct.<\/span><\/p>\n

2.<\/b>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Important terms:<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

2.1.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Commercial communications<\/b> are understood by AEB members as audiovisual commercial communications (\u00a7 25 of the Media Services Act), which are, in particular, television advertising (MSA \u00a7 28 (1)), sponsorship (MSA \u00a7 30 (1)), sponsorship information (MSA \u00a7 30 (2)), teleshopping (MSA \u00a7 28 (2)) and product placement (MSA \u00a7 31 (1)). The suitability of commercial communication is based on its content, and restrictions in the code of conduct do not apply to the identity, business name or trademarks of the person placing the commercial communication.<\/p>\n

Children<\/b> are understood by AEB members as children up to 12 years of age.<\/p>\n

2.2.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Children\u2019s programmes<\/b> are understood by AEB members as all programmes whose audience, according to a television audience study recognised in Estonia, is at least 50% children.<\/p>\n

Inappropriate commercial communications that feature food and drink<\/b> are:<\/span><\/p>\n

2.2.1.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 commercial communications that feature food or drink whose content of fat, including saturated fatty acids, sugar, including added sugar, and\/or salt per 100 grams or millilitres exceeds the maximum content of the relevant category, as set out in Annex 1 of the code of conduct;<\/span><\/p>\n

commercial communications promoting or condoning incorrect eating habits and unhealthy lifestyles, i.e. commercial communications that:<\/span><\/p>\n

(a) are prohibited under the Advertising Act, such as those that directly incite children to enter into transactions independently or exploit their trust in their parents, teachers or other persons;<\/p>\n

(b) encourage excessive food consumption;<\/p>\n

(c) use promotional offers irresponsibly;<\/p>\n

(d) use aggressive or misleading commercial practices, such as those that are misleading or ambiguous in their descriptions of the nutritional value of the product;<\/p>\n

(e) use characters or public figures popular among children that are trademark protected in fields other than food or drink.<\/p>\n

3.<\/b>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Transmission of commercial communications featuring food and drink<\/b><\/p>\n

3.1.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 In order to ensure compliance with the code of conduct, all parties to the advertising chain must ensure compliance.<\/p>\n

AEB members refrain from broadcasting commercial communications referred to in clause 2.4 on their channels during children\u2019s programmes.<\/span><\/p>\n

3.2.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 In the case of commercial communications featuring food and drink, AEB members undertake to introduce this code of conduct to the person placing the commercial communication and the person placing the commercial communication is obliged to verify the compliance or non-compliance of the food or drink featured in the commercial communication with the categories of food and drink unsuitable for commercial communications referred to in clause 2.4.
