ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

This provision reflects a standard COPPA-aligned disclosure for services not directed at children. The policy does not provide a specific contact address for parental requests, which may create a practical barrier to exercising the stated deletion right.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

Under this clause, personal information submitted by children under 13 is subject to deletion upon discovery, and parents or guardians may contact Modal Labs to initiate that process, though no specific contact method or address is identified in the document.
