Why Shopify age verification Matters More Than Ever

verificación de edad shopify

Selling restricted products on Shopify isn’t just about putting items online and waiting for sales. Without Shopify age verification, your store risks fines, lost trust, and brand damage. Building verification into your business today protects customers, reassures regulators, and shows buyers you take responsibility seriously.

Where can our technology be used?

Bouncer Digital’s age validation technology can be applied in a variety of industries and sectors to ensure compliance with age-restricted content or product access regulations and ensure the safety of minors in the digital environment:

  • Adult content websites: age verification on adult entertainment platforms to prevent access by minors.
  • E-commerce platforms with 18+ products: Verification in online stores that sell age-restricted products such as alcohol, tobacco or vapes.
  • Physical vending machines: In self-service machines that sell restricted products, such as alcoholic beverages, cigarettes or vapes, to ensure that the purchaser complies with the legal age.
  • Online gambling platforms: Age verification on online gambling platforms to ensure that only adults can access gambling.

Privacy and Data Protection

Bouncer Digital’s facial age estimation does not involve the processing of biometric data for identification purposes. Our system does not allow unique identification of a person, but merely estimates age from facial characteristics. This ensures that personal data is not processed or stored in an irregular manner. We do not store or share images, and data is never sold or transferred to third parties.

Compliance and Regulations

Bouncer Digital is committed to compliance with international data protection and privacy regulations. Our technology is designed to meet the standards set forth in various global regulations, such as the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and privacy by design principles.

In addition, our technology follows international best practices in terms of privacy protection and data minimization in decision making to perform age validation.

Specifically, Bouncer Digital conforms to the following technical and regulatory standards:

  • KJM (Commission for the Protection of Minors in Media) in Germany.
  • British Standards Institution PAS 1296: Code of practice for age verification, applicable on online and physical platforms in the United Kingdom.
  • Regulations in other countries: Bouncer Digital complies with the regulations in force in countries such as France, Ireland, India, Canada, the United States, Australia and New Zealand, where technological solutions similar to ours are already approved and in use.

 

In Bouncer Digital we have developed a technological solution that is fully compatible with the age verification regulations required in different countries and complies with the principles of Privacy and Data Protection.

How it works

Bouncer Digital’s facial age verification technology allows estimating a person’s age in real time using a process of biometric analysis and liveness check.

Bouncer employs advanced artificial intelligence algorithms to analyze facial features in order to estimate a person’s age. The technology is highly accurate in the biometric analysis of the user, 99.5% effective, and is performed anonymously, fairly and impartially, regardless of gender, race or skin tone.

Bouncer complies with the principle of “privacy by default” and “data minimization”, which means that we use the technology for the sole purpose of validating the user’s age of majority and not storing any data from the process.
