7. Children's Privacy

Our quiz game can be played by children under 13 without the need for registration or providing any personal information. However, creating an account to design quizzes is intended for users 13 and older. Only parents or guardians should create accounts if they wish to design quizzes for younger children to play.

We do not collect personal information from children under 13. If you are a parent or guardian and believe that your child under 13 has provided us with personal information by creating an account, it is your responsibility to contact us, and we will take steps to remove such information and terminate the account.

Any child under 13 has to be authorized by the parent or guardian before playing our game.
