The clause establishes both a service eligibility restriction and a data collection limitation for minors, setting the minimum age threshold at 18 rather than the federal COPPA standard of 13.
Interpretive note: Two independent legal propositions are present: (1) no knowing collection from under-18s and (2) prohibition on under-18 use. Both are stated in the canonical claim as the clause's primary effect is the combined prohibition; the 'knowingly' qualifier on collection is preserved.
The updated policy modifies the language governing notification of Personal Information disclosure. The prior version stated that Rumble 'will attempt to notify you before we disclose your Personal Information,' whereas the revised language states the company 'may attempt to notify you.' This shifts the provision from an asserted commitment to attempt notification toward a discretionary authorization to do so when permitted by law. Under the revised terms, notification attempts are now framed as optional rather than intended.
