Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

This provision establishes the service's operational scope and compliance posture regarding children's privacy regulations. It defines the age threshold below which the service does not collect data and establishes a deletion procedure for inadvertent collection.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

Users under 13 are excluded from the service's intended user base, and the service does not retain their personal information upon discovery of collection. This restriction operates as a threshold mechanism determining eligibility to use the service.
