# Certifications

## Content Rating Encoding

Content rating encoding (Certifications) is the system used to classify films and television programs according to their suitability for different age groups. It is used to provide guidance to viewers, allowing them to make informed decisions about what they watch. Content ratings often appear as symbols or codes that denote the age-appropriateness of a film or TV program, as well as any potentially objectionable content. The ratings are typically assigned by a governmental agency or industry organization, and may vary from country to country. Fabric Studio supports three types of Content Rating Encoding.

### Official Body

For these ratings, Fabric utilises the MovieLabs Content Rating Encoding standard. The full standard is available to view at the MovieLabs Official Website:

### Internal

For content that has not yet been official certified, or for content that needs specific ratings for VOD or D2C platform deliveries, clients are able to add their own internal age ratings to content.
