"We do not knowingly "sell" or "share" personal data about consumers under the age of 16.— Excerpt from Calm's Calm Privacy Policy
The policy's commitment not to sell or share data of consumers under 16 satisfies CCPA Section 1798.120(c) opt-in requirements for minors. However, the policy is silent on COPPA compliance (applicable to users under 13), which is a potential gap that compliance teams should investigate, particularly given Calm's positioning as a wellness app that could attract younger users.
