One key value of ScoutSwap is remaining accessible to all, including people of any age. In order to keep to data protection laws, this is restricted to those over the age of 13, but this then raises the question of how to verify this and keep children and young people safe on our platform.

We use ID verification to ensure that all users of our platform are over the age of 13, segragate over and under 18 users, and to protect the safety and security of our users. By verifying the identity of our users, we can help prevent fraud and ensure that our platform is a safe and secure place for everyone.

We understand that some users may have concerns about privacy and data security when it comes to ID verification. We want to assure our users that we take these concerns seriously and have implemented strict measures to protect their personal information.

Only information required to verify the user's age and identity is collected, and this information is stored securely by our third party. We do not share this information with any other third parties, and it is only used for the purpose of verifying the user's identity and ensuring compliance with online safety laws.

If you have any questions or concerns, please do feel free to contact us at [email protected] or via Discord. We are always happy to help and address any concerns you may have.
