Age & Parental Consent Policy

Last updated: October 2, 2025

This Age & Parental Consent Policy explains who may use Grow As You Go ("GAYG") and under what conditions. Grow As You Go takes youth safety seriously.

Minimum age requirements

• Children under 13 are not allowed to create accounts or use GAYG.
• Teens ages 13-17 may use GAYG only with verified consent from a parent or legal guardian.
• We may ask for documentation to confirm age or consent when needed.

Parent or guardian responsibilities

• Review the Terms of Service, Privacy Policy, and Community Guidelines with your teen.
• Monitor activity, including workouts, journaling, and messaging.
• Ensure the teen has appropriate supervision during training and coaching sessions, especially for higher-risk activities.
• Discuss emergency plans and when to stop activities that feel unsafe.

Consent process

• Guardians must complete our consent form and confirm responsibility for the teen’s use of GAYG.
• Consent covers digital access only. Some offline events, retreats, or competitions may require separate waivers or releases.
• We may revoke access if consent cannot be verified or if required safeguards are not maintained.
• We may request renewed consent annually or when we introduce new features that materially change how youth data is used.

Data rights and privacy

• Guardians can request access to, correction of, or deletion of teen data by emailing privacy@growasyougo.love.
• We follow our Privacy Policy when handling youth data and delete information collected without proper consent.
• We may provide guardians with safety summaries highlighting recent activity trends to support informed oversight.

Reporting concerns

• If you believe a user is under 13 or using GAYG without proper consent, notify us immediately through in-app tools or by emailing moderation@growasyougo.love.
• We will promptly investigate, remove unauthorized accounts, and purge related data when appropriate.
• When we close a youth account, we inform the guardian about any next steps, including how to export permitted data.

Removing access

• We may suspend or terminate a teen’s access for safety reasons, policy violations, or at the guardian’s request.
• Deleted accounts may retain limited backups as described in the User-Generated Content Policy.
• Guardians may request reinstatement after demonstrating that risks are addressed and consent remains valid.
