Ideogram's service is not for children under 13, and the company will delete any personal data it discovers was collected from a child under that age.
Children under 13 are prohibited from using Ideogram, but the absence of a described age-verification system means parents cannot rely on technical safeguards to prevent minors from accessing the AI image generation service.

(1) REGULATORY FRAMEWORK: COPPA (15 U.S.C. §6501 et seq., 16 C.F.R. Part 312) requires verifiable parental consent before collecting personal information from children under 13 and mandates deletion upon discovery. The FTC is the primary enforcement authority. GDPR Art. 8 sets the age of digital consent at 16 (or lower per member state, minimum 13) for information society services, requiring parental consent for processing children's data. UK GDPR and the UK Age Appropriate Design Code impose additional obligations including age-assurance requirements. (2)
