Amazon
· Amazon Conditions of Use
This provision invokes COPPA compliance obligations and establishes Amazon's stated policy on data collection from minors under 13, which is relevant for parents and for compliance teams evaluating COPPA exposure.
Runway
· Runway Privacy Policy
Without access to the complete Children's Data section, the operational requirements regarding compliance with children's privacy regulations (such as COPPA in the United States) and any special handling procedures for data from users under 13 cannot be assessed.
Square
· Square Privacy Notice
This provision establishes Square's operational posture regarding minor user data collection and establishes a data deletion obligation upon discovery of underage user information. The clause reflects Square's compliance framework for age-restricted data collection practices.
Acorns
· Acorns Privacy Policy
The policy's acknowledgment that Acorns Early involves minor beneficiaries, alongside the general COPPA disclaimer, creates a compliance distinction requiring assessment of whether and what data is collected in connection with minor beneficiaries through that product and whether parental consent mechanisms satisfy COPPA's requirements.
Age verification practices for voice AI platforms are under increasing regulatory scrutiny, and a policy relying on 'knowing' collection without active verification may not fully satisfy COPPA obligations in practice.

Eufy
· Eufy Privacy Policy
Smart home devices installed in family households routinely collect audio, video, and behavioral data from children, raising questions about whether Eufy's COPPA compliance extends to household data captured by devices beyond account-holder age restrictions.
This provision establishes COPPA compliance posture for US operations. The absence of described age verification mechanisms raises a practical question about how the under-13 restriction is enforced operationally, which is an active area of FTC scrutiny for online services.
Because airline travel legally requires collection of certain personal data for minors, including passport and identification information, children's data is routinely processed even where general COPPA-style restrictions would otherwise apply.
Given that Xfinity provides household internet, cable, and home security services that are routinely used by all members of a household including children, the 'not directed to children under 13' statement warrants practical scrutiny.
Hulu

COPPA imposes strict federal requirements on how children's data is collected and used, and violations can result in significant FTC penalties; parents should verify that any Disney or Hulu accounts used by children under 13 are configured through a parent or guardian account.
Microsoft
· Microsoft Privacy Statement (Legacy)
The statement establishes that children under 13 are subject to parental consent requirements before data collection occurs, which is relevant to families using Microsoft products and to compliance with COPPA and comparable international children's privacy laws.
COPPA requires parental consent before collecting personal data from children under 13 in the U.S.; parents who discover their child has a Microsoft account or has used Microsoft services should act promptly to request data deletion.
Fitbit
· Fitbit Privacy Policy
The policy relies on a reactive approach to children's data rather than proactive age verification, meaning children under 13 may use the service and provide health data before the issue is identified and addressed.
Calm
· Calm Privacy Policy
This provision operationalizes compliance with state privacy statutes (such as CCPA and similar laws) that restrict sale and sharing of minors' personal information. It establishes a baseline data practice limitation that applies regardless of parental consent or user action.
Gemini
· Gemini Privacy Policy
This provision establishes the service's operational scope regarding minor users and creates a data deletion obligation upon discovery of inadvertent collection from users under 18. The clause reflects the service's institutional policy regarding compliance with children's privacy regulations.
This provision engages COPPA obligations for US users; the policy does not describe age verification mechanisms, which is relevant given that voice cloning tools could be accessed by minors.
This provision establishes Leonardo AI's stated COPPA compliance posture; the policy does not describe the technical or operational mechanism by which users under 13 are identified and excluded from the platform.
This provision places the full responsibility for child data protection compliance on the commercial Customer, including obtaining parental consents, which is a significant operational obligation for organizations whose customer base includes minors.
This provision establishes the platform's COPPA compliance framework, but parents or guardians who believe a child under 13 has used the platform should contact Skillshare directly to trigger deletion of the child's data.
This provision implements age-gating requirements under children's privacy regulations, particularly COPPA in the United States. The deletion obligation establishes a procedural response to unauthorized collection of minors' data.
The presence of a children's personal information section indicates that Cash App's services are directed at or accessible to users who may be under 13, and the policy's treatment of this category determines whether COPPA compliance obligations are addressed.
Age verification and children's data protection are active regulatory priorities in the US and internationally, and Bluesky's use of birth date collection and third-party verification services to gate access signals awareness of these obligations.
The policy's inclusion of a dedicated section on children's personal information indicates that DoorDash has considered COPPA and analogous obligations, though the specific terms of that section are not fully reproduced in the available document text.
Target
· Target Privacy Policy
This provision establishes Target's stated COPPA compliance posture; the 'not knowingly' standard is the operative COPPA threshold, and the absence of a described age verification or parental consent mechanism in the policy text means the practical implementation of this commitment is not detailed in the policy itself.
The policy relies on a reactive rather than proactive approach to COPPA compliance, stating that Poe will delete data upon discovery rather than describing age verification mechanisms that would prevent collection in the first instance.
Garmin
· Garmin Privacy Statement
Garmin sells products such as junior GPS watches and family tracking devices that may be used by children, creating a practical tension between the stated policy exclusion of under-13 users and the product reality; parents should be aware that COPPA protections apply but depend on Garmin becoming aware of a child's use.
This provision establishes Audible's COPPA compliance posture and is operationally relevant because Audible offers content categories that may attract minor users. The FTC enforces COPPA and has pursued enforcement actions against digital platforms for failures in age verification and parental consent mechanisms.
This provision establishes Walmart's stated approach to COPPA compliance, but the policy's in-store and loyalty program data collection practices may create scenarios where data about minors is collected incidentally through family accounts or in-store transactions, which warrants specific review.
