Australian Classification
In Australia, the ‘Classification Act’Â requires the ‘Classification Board’ to consider matters including community standards, the nature of the content and whether it has any artistic or educational value, and who the intended audience is when making classification decisions for films, computer games and some publications.

Nexus Online Content
Where possible, we will display the official classification rating for the content being used in a session or activity during Nexus Online.
If an official classification is not available, we will use the same tools and algorithms to provide approximate classifications for each session and activity.
