Every business that handles the data of under 16s must comply with a raft of new regulations that mandate companies to have a way to verify a child's age and, for very young children, verify parental responsibility for a child, so a verified parent can give consent on behalf of a child. These include the General Data Protection Regulation, Anti-Money Laundering Directive, Payments Services Directive and the California Consumer Privacy Protection Act, and non-compliance can mean companies incur fines of up to $20 million or 4% of global annual turnover. TrustElevate's purpose is to create a safer internet for children. TrustElevate is a child verification and parental consent service provider. TrustElevate verifies under-16s' ages, and for under-13s, we verify an assertion of parental responsibility so a parent can grant, deny or revoke consent to data processing, purchasing and access. 

​

Those platforms and services deploying TrustElevate's technology know the ages of their users, which significantly enhances the ability to keep children safer online by preventing adults with a sexual interest in children accessing online spaces in which children interact and serving age-appropriate content. TrustElevate's technology has the power to transform the internet into a place that respects children's right to a safer place to grow up.
