"Our Services are not directed to children under the age of 18. If you are under the age of 18, please do not use or provide any information on our Services. If we learn we have collected or received personal data from a child under the age of 18 without verification of parental consent, we will delete that information.— Excerpt from Fireworks AI's Fireworks AI Privacy Policy
(1) REGULATORY FRAMEWORK: This provision directly implicates COPPA (15 U.S.C. §§6501-6506), which prohibits online services from knowingly collecting personal information from children under 13 without verifiable parental consent, enforced by the FTC with civil penalties up to $51,744 per violation. The policy sets a higher age threshold of 18, potentially also engaging state minor privacy laws such as California's Age-Appropriate Design Code Act (AB 2273, effective 2024) which imposes design and privacy obligations for services likely accessed by minors under 18.
