(1) REGULATORY FRAMEWORK: This provision directly implicates COPPA (Children's Online Privacy Protection Act, 15 U.S.C. §§6501-6506) and its implementing rule (16 CFR Part 312), which requires verifiable parental consent before collecting personal information from children under 13. The FTC is the primary enforcement authority. For Grammarly for Education deployments, FERPA (20 U.S.C. §1232g) and PPRA may also apply to student data collected in K-12 contexts. (2)
