9. Children's Privacy (COPPA Compliance)

Our website is intended for adults aged 20 and older. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13. Our BMI calculator is explicitly not designed for use by, or targeted at, children under 13 years old — different BMI standards apply to children and teens.

We comply with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA). If we discover that we have inadvertently collected personal information from a child under 13, we will promptly delete that information. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child under 13 has provided us with personal information, please contact us immediately at ludada960@gmail.com.

Parents and guardians are encouraged to monitor their children's online activities and to help enforce this policy by instructing their children never to provide personal information on this website without parental permission.
