Children's Data and Age Restriction

Medium severity
Share 𝕏 Share in Share 🔒 PDF

What it is

Fiverr does not allow children under 13 to use the platform and requires users aged 13-17 to have parental involvement, though the policy does not describe how this is enforced.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

Minors under 13 are prohibited from using Fiverr, but the absence of described age verification means children's data could be collected inadvertently — creating risk for families whose children access the platform.

Why it matters (compliance & risk perspective)

The policy lacks description of age verification mechanisms, which means minors may access the platform and have their data collected without adequate COPPA-compliant protections.

View original clause language
Our Services are not directed to children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we become aware that a child under 13 has provided us with personal information, we will take steps to delete such information. If you are between 13 and 18 years of age, you may only use our Services with the involvement of a parent or guardian.

Institutional analysis (Compliance & legal intelligence)

(1) REGULATORY FRAMEWORK: Children's data protection implicates COPPA (15 U.S.C. §6501 et seq.) enforced by the FTC, which requires verifiable parental consent before collecting personal information from children under 13; GDPR Art. 8 (age of digital consent, varying 13-16 by member state) and GDPR Art. 6(1)(a) for minors' consent; UK Children's Code (Age Appropriate Design Code) enforced by the ICO for services likely accessed by minors; and CCPA/CPRA which provides additional protections for minors under 16 (opt-in required for sale of data, §1798.120(c)).
