Component body

The COPPA lite module provides basic COPPA compliance for users registering for an account on your site by validating their age and setting a cookie on the users machine if age validation fails. This will prevent them from attempting registration again for a period of 24 hours as well as presenting the user with a generic error message.

The coppa_lite module creates a date of birth field on the user profile if no other date fields exist and exposes it on the user registration form. If you wish to use an existing date field you can assign which field to use by visiting the modules configuration page.

Requirements:

Disclaimer: Any sites requiring COPPA compliance should vet their membership policies with a lawyer. This module is NOT a substitute for sound legal advice. COPPA law is interpreted in different ways in different jurisdictions; and this module comes with NO GUARANTEES that it will enforce COPPA compliance in all jurisdictions.
