Knowing your birthday helps us use age-appropriate settings for your account. For example, minors may see a warning when we think they've found a site they may not want to see.” If you're like me, you may not want to give up personal information.

Whilst we currently don't ask for a credit card during sign up, verifying your age through a small credit card transaction is one way to confirm that you meet our age requirements in case your account was disabled after you have entered a birthday indicating you are not old enough to have a Google Account.

Age verification systems are surveillance systems. Mandatory age verification, and with it, mandatory identity verification, is the wrong approach to protecting young people online. It would force websites to require visitors to prove their age by submitting information such as government-issued identification.

Users will usually enter their name, address and date of birth (either specifically for the purposes of age verification or as part of their account opening or purchase process), and a search is made of credit reference agency databases to confirm the details are accurate and obtain or confirm the date of birth.

If you're not old enough to manage your own account, you can have a parent use their Google Account to set up supervision so you can continue using your account. You have 14 days after you entered your birthdate to enable supervision before your account will be disabled.

Account recovery requests can be delayed for a few hours or a number of days, depending on a variety of risk factors. For example, if you added more security to your account by setting up 2-Step Verification, your account recovery request might be delayed for longer.

If you choose not to set up supervision or verify you're old enough to manage your account within 14 days, your account will be disabled and your account information will be deleted after 30 days.

Important: Google uses this information to verify your identity, and to protect you and us from fraud and abuse. We store this data securely in your Google account. We may, with your consent, use or share this information to help you register for other services you request.

Google needs to make sure you're old enough to use a Google Account without a parent's supervision. If you don't confirm your age within 12 days, your account won't work anymore. To keep your account, you need to confirm that you are old enough to use Google products.
