Enhanced Security with Minors Access Prevention 🛡️

Prevent Minors From Enrolling

When activated, this powerful security feature diligently screens and identifies users' age during the on-boarding process, and thus will forbid minors less than 18 years old from enrolling on your application with the fioErrCode.MINORS_NOT_ALLOWED error code being raised if a minor try to on-board on your application, reinforcing your compliance and security measures. This highly requested security feature is immediately available to trigger from the FACEIO Console. Please refer to the updated boilerplate integration code to see this feature in action.

Comply with Jurisdictional Regulations 📜

If your application is offering sensitive services or operating in jurisdictions such as the UK and certain US states that strictly prohibit minors from accessing such services, this security feature is mandatory & invaluable tool for you. By activating it, you can seamlessly align with legal requirements and ensure that only eligible users gain access to your platform.
