- Parents or guardians must explicitly agree to this policy and related Terms of Service and Privacy Policy when creating learner accounts for their children, ensuring proper supervision of their child's usage.
- Learners aged 13 and above may be invited by parents/guardians to link accounts or may independently create their own accounts. Independent learners must agree to this policy and related terms themselves.
2. Information Collection
- During parent account registration, parents or guardians provide necessary information about authorized learners, such as names. We do not knowingly collect children's birthdates or other sensitive personal information.
