What it is

You must be at least 13 years old to use Midjourney; if you are old enough in your country but under the age of majority, a parent or guardian must agree to the Terms on your behalf and is responsible for your activity.

ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

The provision allocates responsibility for compliance and account activity based on user age and parental authorization status. It establishes that Midjourney conditions service access on age verification and documented parental consent where legally required, creating a contractual relationship between the service provider and parent or guardian for accounts used by minors.

Recent Activity

This document changed recently

High Apr 26, 2026

Midjourney removed substantial sections from its Terms of Service covering age requirements, content rights, DMCA policy, dispute resolution, payment and billing, and community guidelines. The removal of these section headers and their substantive content means users no longer have explicit written guidance on these critical areas within the primary terms document. This creates operational uncertainty about what terms now govern these areas: whether they were relocated to separate policies, consolidated elsewhere, or eliminated entirely cannot be determined from this change summary alone. The absence of explicit terms on dispute resolution, age verification, and content rights represents a material change in contractual transparency.

ConductAtlas Analysis

Institutional analysis (Compliance & governance intelligence)

The minimum age of 13 and digital consent age alignment implicates COPPA compliance obligations in the US context. The disclaimer that AI-generated content may not always be age-appropriate, combined with the absence of robust parental consent mechanisms described in these Terms, may warrant additional regulatory scrutiny.
