As governments begin to require online platforms and services to offer age-appropriate content and experiences, a fundamentally important and complicated question arises: how do companies know how old their users are? Age assurance and verification are at the nexus of creating safe and appropriate online experiences for all users while attempting to minimize data collection and processing. This expert panel will explore some of the top age assurance techniques as they discuss the best practices and tradeoffs of establishing safe, engaging, age-appropriate experiences for users.
