Users under 18 years of age may only use the Service with the prior consent and supervision of a parent or legal guardian. By creating an account for a user under 18, the parent or legal guardian represents that they have reviewed this Privacy Policy and our Terms of Service, consent to their child's use of the Service, and agree to be responsible for their child's activities on the Service.

For users under 13, we rely on the parental consent provided during account creation to comply with COPPA. Parents are responsible for ensuring that the information provided during account creation is accurate and for supervising their child's use of the Service.

We do not sell, rent, or disclose children's personal information to third parties except in the following limited circumstances:
