ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

This provision implements compliance requirements under the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), which restricts collection of personal information from children under 13 without verifiable parental consent. The deletion obligation establishes a procedural mechanism for remedying non-compliant data collection.

Users under age 13 are restricted from using the Services under the stated terms of this provision. For users who are parents or guardians of children under 13, the clause establishes that Grammarly will delete any personal information collected from such children if discovered, rather than retaining or monetizing that data.
