There is no international law that states you have to have an age gate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mentioned US/UK laws, which don't apply to this website. Also there is no UK law for it either, not sure about US law. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noortje Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 (edited) If you really want to comply with COPPA you would put an age gate regardless of your content, since you potentially gather information of a 13 old just by him making an account here, or do you block users who're under 13 from making an account?Oh and the UK doesn't have a law like that. Cameron wants to make one but it's not here yet afaik. Edited May 27, 2015 by Noortje Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Age restrictionsNexus sites are open to people aged 13 or older. Due to legal reasons minors under the age of 13 are not allowed to use the site and should not register an account. Similarly content marked as adult-only should only be unlocked by members aged 18 or over. As far as I know, when we have reason to believe someone's underage, we ban them. They may be allowed to return later when they're old enough.The same, or more severe even, goes for accessing adult-only content while not being adult, yet.
