ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

The 'knowingly' qualifier limits Samsung's commitment to cases where it is aware of the user's age, and the parental consent exception means collection from under-13 users is permissible with consent.

Interpretive note: The 'knowingly' qualifier is legally significant and is preserved. The clause does not address what Samsung does if it discovers it has unknowingly collected such data.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

Samsung's policy prohibits knowing solicitation or collection of personal information from children under 13 online without parental consent, but does not address unknowing collection.
