Various products sold by DVD KING may not be suitable for persons of all
ages. The New Zealand Department of Internal Affairs and The Office of Film
and Literature Classification (which works with a number of other agencies
to maintain the censorship system and enforce censorship law) have
established ratings for the movie industries respectively. New Zealand has
used a colour-coded labeling system since 1987. The colours are intended to
convey the messages conveyed by a traffic light: a green label means that
nothing in the film, video or DVD should inhibit anyone viewing it; a yellow
label means proceed with caution because the film, video or DVD may have
content younger viewers should not see; and a red label means stop and
ensure that no one outside of the restriction views the film, video, DVD or
computer game. The New Zealand classification system currently uses the
following labels:
R13+ - Restricted to persons over 13 years of age only.
R15+ - Restricted to persons over 15 years of age only.
R16+ - Restricted to persons over 16 years of age only.
