Windsurf sets 18 as the minimum age for accessing its Services, which defines the intended user population and creates an age-based access boundary.
Interpretive note: The excerpt contains two independent grounds for the stop-accessing instruction: being under 18, and not wishing personal information to be handled as described. The canonical claim states only the age-based ground as the primary proposition. The 'should' framing (rather than 'must') is a qualifier preserved in the claim.
If you are under 18, Windsurf instructs you to stop using its Services.
