Age Verification Policy

2) How age-gating and verification works

We use age-gating and, where appropriate, age-verification checks designed to deter minors from accessing the site. These measures may include:

• Age affirmations (e.g., confirming you meet the applicable age requirement).
• Account controls such as requiring a date of birth and re-prompts for age confirmation.
• Technical signals (for example, IP-based location indicators) to tailor eligibility by jurisdiction.
• Risk-based verification, which may include checks performed by identity/age verification service providers.
• Requests for additional information (e.g., government-issued ID and/or proof of address) when legally required or when we suspect underage use.

We do not guarantee that all minors will be prevented from accessing the site, but we continuously work to improve safeguards.

3) Steps we take to prevent minors’ access

• Presenting clear 20+/legal-age notices on entry points where appropriate.
• Limiting certain features unless a user has completed applicable verification steps.
• Monitoring for unusual activity patterns that may indicate underage use or falsified information.
• Restricting or removing accounts that violate age requirements.

4) Suspected underage accounts

If we suspect an account is being used by someone under the applicable age, we may:

• Request additional age/identity information.
• Restrict access while verification is pending.
• Suspend or close the account if age eligibility cannot be confirmed.
• Take other actions required by law or to protect users and the integrity of the site.

If you provide false information about your age, you may lose access and any associated benefits, subject to applicable law.
