The updated terms establish new age-based access restrictions: users aged 13-18 (or 16-18 in the EEA) may now use OpenSea only with parental or guardian approval and oversight, while users under 13 (or 16 in the EEA) are prohibited entirely. The terms also introduce an embedded wallet feature through Privy, governed by separate Wallet & Onramp Terms of Use between the user and Sea Trove LLC, a subsidiary of OpenSea's parent company; OpenSea explicitly states it does not operate or control this wallet. Additionally, the updated terms expand prohibited user conduct to include name squatting, spam distribution, and impersonation, and require users to conduct their own research before transacting. Parents or guardians of teen users should review the new parental oversight requirements and the separate wallet terms if their child uses the embedded wallet feature.
