Data for Kids and Parents
The diagram below is a high-level view of what data is stored in k-ID for kids, parents and sessions.
Verified parent data and child data is maintained independently across all Products. Once a parent is verified, verification doesn’t need to be done again for new games.
Getting Child Data From the API
Confirmed Date of Birth
If consent is required, a parent will be asked to confirm the player's date of birth which may result in a change from what the player entered in the age gate or what was acquired from a Platform or existing account. The confirmed date of birth for the player is returned in the dateOfBirth
field from the /age-gate/check
and /session/get
API.
Email of the Parent
The email of the approving parent for the current player is returned in the approverEmail
field of the response from /challenge/await
. This email address can be associated with the player account in the game for use in customer support cases.
