Age verification
Age estimation
Age assurance explained
Age assurance refers to the range of methods used to determine a user’s age or age range online. Its aim is to protect children from harmful or inappropriate content online while helping platforms provide age-appropriate experiences and safeguards. Â
These methods include both age verification and estimation. Since there is no universal solution for age assurance, both online and offline, offering flexible and inclusive options is key. This ensures that users can select methods that align with their preferences, preserve privacy and minimise friction.
At Verifymy, we recognise the significance of empowering users with choice. Our diverse age verification and estimation methods are designed to prioritise flexibility, and can be provided as a complete solution or as individual methods to complement existing solutions.
