What it is

FanDuel says it does not knowingly sell personal data of users under 16 years old, though the repeated and slightly inconsistent wording of this statement is notable.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

Parents and guardians of users under 16 should be aware that FanDuel's policy contains inconsistent language regarding minor data sales, which may create uncertainty about the actual level of protection provided for children's personal information.

Why it matters (compliance & risk perspective)

The dual statement about minors' data — one version including the 'without legally-required affirmative authorization' qualifier and one without — creates ambiguity about FanDuel's actual policy on minor data sales.

Please note that we do not knowingly sell the personal information of minors under 16 years of age without legally-required affirmative authorization. Please note that we do not knowingly sell the personal information of minors under 16 years of age.

Institutional analysis (Compliance & legal intelligence)

REGULATORY FRAMEWORK: The prohibition on selling data of minors under 16 is required by CCPA §1798.120(d), which mandates opt-in consent for sale of personal information of consumers 13-15 years old, and parental consent for those under 13 under COPPA (15 U.S.C. §6502). The FTC enforces COPPA with civil penalties up to $51,744 per violation (adjusted for inflation). California AG enforces CCPA minor protections. The document's inconsistency between the two statements — one qualifying with 'without legally-required affirmative authorization' and one not — may create compliance ambiguity.
