The Pentagon's supply chain risk designation does not directly modify Anthropic's consumer-facing terms of service, but creates government-level procurement restrictions that may affect Anthropic's ability to contract with federal agencies and defense contractors. The designation reflects the Department of Defense's assessment that Anthropic's acceptable use policy restrictions on mass domestic surveillance and fully autonomous weapons present supply chain governance concerns under federal law. Commercial users of Anthropic's services are not directly subject to this designation, but federal agencies, defense contractors, and government-dependent organizations may face new contracting or compliance obligations when evaluating Anthropic as a vendor.

If we learn that we've collected the personal data of a child under the age of 13 or 16, as applicable, we'll take reasonable steps to delete the personal data. This may require us to delete the Skillshare account...
Our moderators will thoughtfully consider any explanations and supplemental information provided by the Member when deciding whether to take action or reinstate access.
If we become aware that a child has provided us with personal data without parental consent, we remove such data and terminate the child's account (except where we are required to retain all or a portion of such data for compliance purposes).
