Protect Your Business & Customers

 
On the internet, it’s hard to know who’s a child. This reality creates serious risks for your company – and in some cases, even individual executives are exposed to major liability.
 
Regardless of the minimum age your company presents for access to your digital content and services, the current widespread lack of age awareness online is a critical challenge. PRIVO has solutions.
 

It Starts with PRIVO's Smart Age Gate

Compliant engagement starts with PRIVO’s groundbreaking, device-level protection to restrict or block digital access by minors under a certain age.

PRIVO supports you to Know Your Audience with a combination of age and role-based tools to ensure a compliant registration flow. PRIVO’s Smart Age Gate™ can replace or enhance your current age gate. 

How it works

  • PRIVO can prevent children from easily circumventing and accessing services that are either age-restricted and/or which require parental consent by querying the protection registry. 
  • Once configured to the required minimum age or age range, the gate will remember each user’s initial entry into an app or browser and will not allow changes to the user’s age.
  • The gate will age up the user in real time to ensure appropriate access.
  • The gate can also be used with dispute resolution if a user enters the wrong date of birth and consent if and when required.

Identity Verification & Age Assurance 

PRIVO's verification widget is offered stand alone or embedded into PRIVO's identity suite. You can invoke the PRIVO verification widget with a simple JavaScript API call. The widget can be called from a mobile web browser that runs inside the native app.

Methods Available
Multiple online and offline methods are available (e.g., credit card, last 4 digital of your social security number, driver's license, print form, phone, etc.) making parental verification easy, convenient, and scalable, reducing the negative impact on your conversion rate. Your requirements determine which methods display to your users.

PRIVO is authorized to sanction new identity and consent mechanisms that can be relied upon for COPPA compliance. Work with us to design your own method.

Jurisdiction Aware
When invoking the verification widget, the Jurisdiction of the user is defined and locale language and verification methods are presented.

Verification Complete
Upon successful verification the partner service receives a verify-complete event notice containing the verification details in JSON format.

Already Verified PRIVO iD Accounts
Users that already have an existing adult verified can authenticate to the widget saving them time & effort.

Smart Widget
Once authenticated, the widget knows if the user needs to ‘upgrade’ their verification level.

Secure Handling
Data used within the widget is securely handled during the entire verification process.

* ALL DATA is EXTINGUISHED upon verification completion. Users can SAVE THEIR OUTCOME for future use.
