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 expands the categories of personal data Rumble collects and uses. The policy now explicitly authorizes collection of universal identifiers and sensitive personal information such as political opinions when providing personalized advertising. Automatically collected information may now be combined in ways that identify individuals and is treated as personal information under applicable law. The policy also clarifies that Rumble may disclose personal information 'as we otherwise notify you' beyond the specific circumstances previously listed. You can review the full updated policy at the end of this document to understand how your data may be used for advertising purposes.
