    Users of the Service who are under the age of 18 ("Minors") may only access the platform via a Child Sub-Account created and authorized by a verified parent or legal guardian ("Parent"). By creating a Child Sub-Account, the Parent represents and warrants that they are the legal parent or guardian of the minor and possess the legal authority to bind the minor to these Terms.

    7.2 Financial and Operational Consent

    The Parent assumes full legal and financial responsibility for all actions taken by the Child Sub-Account. This includes, but is not limited to:

    • Initiating requests to join community groups, sports clubs, or organizations.
    • Authorizing fees, memberships, or ticket transactions. All financial transactions must be completed exclusively through the Parent's dashboard utilizing the Parent's payment methods via Stripe.

    7.3 Safeguarding and Data Sharing

    The Parent acknowledges and agrees that when a Child Sub-Account requests to join or joins a group, the Group Administrator will be able to see the minor's name, age category, and the Parent's contact details. This data sharing is strictly executed for safeguarding and organizational compliance purposes.
