This clause operationalizes Poshmark's compliance with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) and establishes age-gated access controls. The provision delegates specific consent procedures and parental authorization protocols to a separate Minors Policy document, which establishes the procedural framework for permitting minor user accounts.
Poshmark's Terms of Service underwent a substantial update on April 19, 2026, with 249 new sentences and 3 modified sentences. The specific operational changes created by these additions cannot be determined from the detection summary alone. All users should review the updated terms at Poshmark's website to identify any new policies, requirements, restrictions, or disclosures that affect their use of the platform.
View change record →Poshmark's updated Privacy Policy provides substantially more transparency about the personal data it collects (including name, address, payment details, and content you create), how it uses and shares that information, and the legal bases for processing. The policy now explicitly covers data collected across websites, mobile apps, and other platforms, and identifies collection points including account registration, purchases, listings, stories, and interactions with other users. California residents are directed to a separate supplemental privacy notice. While this change increases clarity about data practices rather than restricting new data collection, reviewing the specific uses and sharing practices described in the full policy can help you understand what data Poshmark retains and how it may be used.
View change record →Previous generic age restriction was replaced with more explicit and detailed "Age Restriction and Minors" provision that strengthens the requirement from medium to low severity while making it more comprehensive.
View full change record →Parents and guardians of users aged 13-17 bear supervisory responsibility for all transactions conducted by minors on Poshmark, including financial obligations arising from sales and purchases, which may create unexpected financial liability for families.

"You may not use the Service if you are under the age of 13. If you are at least 13 but under the age of 18, you may only use the Service with permission of your parent or guardian as described in our Minors Policy (which is incorporated by reference into this Agreement).— Excerpt from Poshmark's Poshmark Terms of Service
(1) REGULATORY FRAMEWORK: This provision directly implicates COPPA (Children's Online Privacy Protection Act, 15 U.S.C. §6501 et seq.) and FTC COPPA Rule (16 CFR Part 312), which require verifiable parental consent before collecting personal information from children under 13. The 13+ minimum age is the standard COPPA threshold. For users aged 13-17, COPPA does not apply but state minor protection laws may impose additional obligations. California's Age-Appropriate Design Code Act (AB 2273, effective 2024) requires platforms likely to be accessed by minors under 18 to implement specific data protection measures. The FTC is the primary COPPA enforcement authority with fines up to $51,744 per violation per day. (2)
