Why Parental Consent is Important
At Hack The Box, we prioritize the safety and privacy of all our users. In accordance with our commitment to protecting young users, we require that individuals under 18 years of age obtain parental or legal guardian consent before registering for an account and using our services. This policy ensures that minors have the necessary oversight and that their personal information is handled responsibly.
What You Need to Know
Age Requirement
If you are between 13 and 18 years old, you must have a parent or legal guardian complete a consent form. This form confirms that they:
Agree to our Terms of Service.
Consent to the use of your personal data as detailed in our Privacy Policy.
Why We Need This Form
The consent form is essential because it:
Ensures compliance with legal regulations regarding minors’ online activities.
Provides a clear understanding of our terms and the nature of our services to parents and guardians.
Protects your privacy and security by making sure your information is handled with proper consent.
How to Submit the Consent Form
Download the Consent Form: You can download the parental consent form from this link.
Print and Complete the Form: Have your parent or legal guardian fill out all required information and sign the form. This includes:
Their full name.
Signature.
Date of signing.
Provide Parent's ID: To verify the signature and full name on the consent form, we request a copy of the parent or legal guardian's ID (such as a driver’s license or passport). Please note:
We do not store any ID information; it is used solely to confirm the validity of the signed consent form.
You can submit both the form and ID as either scanned copies or clear photographs. Ensure all information is legible.
Submit Both Documents: Once the form is completed and you have the ID ready:
Email the scanned/photographed form and ID to [email protected].
Alternatively, you can upload the documents through our support channel, opening a support discussion.
Important Notes:
Legibility: Make sure that all text and information on both the consent form and ID is clear and easy to read.
Privacy: Rest assured, the ID will not be stored or used for any other purpose beyond confirming the parent's identity for this specific form.
Following these steps ensures a smooth verification process for your account registration.
