Do we need to implement an age gate to use our product?
- Is your product not meant to be used by children? You might need to implement an age verification mechanism to prevent children from accessing the product.
- Age verification can also be important to provide the right diagnosis (health sector).
If you answered Yes then you are at risk
If you are not sure, then you might be at risk too
Recommendations
- Clearly specify in the user instructions for which age group the application is built. Labels or symbols can be very helpful.
- Consider which design is more appropriate based on your use case, and consider the possible risks associated with your design choice, and the mitigating measures you can implement to reduce that risk. Document the rest risks that you want to accept.
- Test the accessibility of your design with different age groups.
