# Age Check

> Age Check is BloxCord's built-in age verification system, designed to help your organization confirm users meet your age requirements without staff ever handling personal documents. Users complete a quick verification that combines a guided face scan with AI-powered checks for liveness, consistency, and age estimation, then returns a clear result for administrators to review.

<Info>
  Age Check must be enabled before age verification sessions and results can be viewed or managed. Visit the Features tab to get started.

## How It Works

<CardGroup cols={2}>
  <Card title="Start the Session" icon="play">
    The user opens Age Check and taps **Begin verification**. They're taken to a BloxCord-affiliated site to complete the process on a mobile device with a camera.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Enter Year of Birth" icon="calendar">
    The user enters their year of birth, allowing BloxCord to compare their claimed age against the estimated age from the verification.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Guided Face Scan" icon="face-viewfinder">
    They follow simple on-screen prompts, moving their head or making expressions. The scan takes around a minute and is used only to estimate age.
  </Card>

  <Card title="AI-Graded Results" icon="sparkles">
    BloxCord's AI analyzes the verification for liveness, consistency, and facial matching, comparing the submitted images against age-specific AI models trained for different age groups before returning a result that authorized administrators can review.

## Your Privacy, Our Priority

Age Check was built with privacy first. **Your face is never stored, never shown to a human, and never used for anything beyond verifying your age.**

## Frequently Asked Questions

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="What data is collected during Age Check?" icon="database">
    Age Check captures a short series of images and processes them through an automated AI age estimation system. The estimated age is compared against the information you provide to verify eligibility. Images and any facial analysis derived from them are used only for age verification, are never stored, and are never used to identify you or for any other purpose.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Is my face stored anywhere?" icon="face-grin">
    No. Your images are processed entirely by automated systems. They are never viewed or manually reviewed by our staff and are deleted after the verification is complete.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Does BloxCord use a third-party AI provider?" icon="robot">
    Age estimation may be performed using a trusted third-party AI provider that processes images on our behalf to return an age estimate. Where required by law, this processing is based on your consent. If you choose not to use Age Check, some features or access may be unavailable.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Who can see my verification results, and what can they see?" icon="eye">
    After an Age Check is completed, authorized Owners and Administrators can view the verification result, the user's declared and estimated age groups (such as 13–14, 15–17, or 18–20), liveness status (Passed or Failed), and the number of devices used during verification. The underlying images are never shared with your organization.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Who operates the verification site?" icon="building-shield">
    The verification site is operated by BloxCord Systems and Starstruck Solutions LLC. It exists solely to perform Age Check verifications and is not used for any other purpose.
