What is a age restriction clause?

A age restriction clause is a provision in a platform's terms of service or privacy policy that governs age restriction-related rights, obligations, or restrictions between the platform and users.

How many platforms have age restriction clauses?

ConductAtlas currently tracks 218 platforms with age restriction provisions, of which 68 are classified as high severity, 119 as medium, and 31 as low.

How is severity determined for age restriction clauses?

ConductAtlas classifies each provision as high, medium, or low severity based on the magnitude of rights waived, availability of opt-out mechanisms, breadth of users affected, financial or legal exposure created, and the degree of discretion retained by the platform.

How often are age restriction clauses updated?

ConductAtlas monitors all tracked platforms daily. Age Restriction clauses are updated at varying frequencies depending on the platform — some revise quarterly, others remain stable for years. Every detected change is captured same-day with legal-grade evidence.

Can I get alerted when age restriction clauses change?

Yes. Watcher subscribers ($9.99/month) can track up to 10 platforms and receive email alerts when those platforms update any clause including age restriction. Professional subscribers ($149/month) get cross-platform clause monitoring that alerts on age restriction changes across any tracked platform.

developer_tools GitHub Minimum Age Requirement (COPPA)

Medium

What it means

This provision implements compliance with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) and establishes GitHub's enforcement mechanism for age-based access restrictions. It allocates responsibility for legal compliance to users in jurisdictions with age requirements exceeding 13 years.

Consumer impact

Users under 13 years of age are not permitted to establish or maintain accounts on GitHub, and any identified underage accounts will be terminated automatically. Users in jurisdictions with higher minimum age thresholds bear the responsibility for ensuring their account status complies with local age requirements.

Opt-out available

No opt-out available

Actual clause text

GitHub does not target our Service to children under 13, and we do not permit any Users under the age of 13 on our Service. If we learn of any User under the age of 13, we will terminate that User's account immediately. If you are a resident of a country outside the United States, your country's minimum age may be older; in such a case, you are responsible for complying with your country's laws.

AI Difference Analysis Professional

Stripe's arbitration clause is narrower than Amazon's in one key respect: it includes a small claims court carve-out that Amazon's clause does not. PayPal's clause is the most aggressive of the three, explicitly waiving jury trial rights in addition to class action rights. From a compliance perspective, Amazon presents the lowest risk for B2B contracts while PayPal creates the highest exposure for consumer-facing applications subject to CFPB oversight.
