Age Verification Policy
Effective date: 2026-05-27
This policy explains how obsidianotterden.com helps prevent access by minors and supports compliance for age-restricted, casino-style social entertainment experiences.
1) Minimum Age
You must be at least 18 years old to access or use age-restricted features on this site. If the laws where you are located require a higher age for casino-style gaming or similar activities (commonly 21+ in some U.S. jurisdictions), the higher age applies.
2) Age-Gating
We may present an age gate (e.g., date-of-birth entry and confirmation) before you can access certain pages, create an account, or participate in age-restricted experiences. Providing false information is prohibited.
3) How We Verify Age
Depending on risk signals and applicable law, we may use one or more of the following checks:
- Self-declared date of birth and account profile review.
- Technical checks such as IP-based or device/location signals (where available).
- Requesting additional information (e.g., full name, address) to confirm identity/age.
- Identity/age verification via a third-party provider.
- Requesting government-issued ID and/or a selfie/liveness check (where permitted).
4) If Age Cannot Be Verified
If we cannot confirm you meet the applicable age requirement, we may:
- Restrict access to age-restricted features or content.
- Temporarily suspend your account while verification is pending.
- Decline account creation or permanently close the account.
5) Underage Users
If we determine a user is under the applicable age, we may close the account, block further access, and take steps to prevent re-registration. We may also remove or disassociate user content and handle personal information in accordance with our privacy practices and applicable law.
6) Reporting & Appeals
To report suspected underage use or to appeal an age-verification decision, contact us at contact@obsidianotterden.com. Please include the username (if applicable), the email used on the account, and any relevant details. We may request additional information to complete our review.
7) Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy to reflect legal, operational, or security changes. The “Effective date” above indicates when it was last updated.
