AGE RESTRICTIONS AND COOKIE USAGE

At One Green Filter, LLC, ensuring compliance with regulations such as the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is paramount, especially when it comes to collecting personal information from children. Our approach to age verification involves the use of advanced technological solutions to accurately determine the age of users accessing our website. We employ age-gating tools that prompt users to input their date of birth before accessing certain features or content, thereby ensuring that individuals under the age of 13 are not inadvertently providing personal information.

In instances where our website features interactive elements or services that may collect personal information from children, such as cookies, we implement a stringent parental consent mechanism. This process involves obtaining verifiable parental consent through a two-step authentication process, which may include electronic signatures, email verification, or other secure methods of parental verification. By requiring explicit parental consent before collecting any personal data from children, we adhere to COPPA and GDPR regulations, safeguarding children's privacy rights and creating a secure online environment for all users. Through these measures, we strive to uphold the principles of privacy and data protection, ensuring that our platform remains safe and compliant for users of all ages.
