Age Verification Policy

1) Eligibility (21+)

Embergrovehouse.com (the “Service”) is intended only for individuals who are at least 21 years old, or the applicable legal gambling age in the user’s jurisdiction if higher. By accessing or using the Service, you represent that you meet this requirement.

2) How we screen and verify age

• Age gate / self-attestation: we may require you to confirm your age (e.g., by entering a date of birth or affirming you are 21+).
• Account-level checks: we may review account information you provide (such as date of birth) and consistency across sessions or profiles.
• Risk-based verification: if we detect signals that suggest a user may be underage or information may be inaccurate, we may request additional verification before allowing continued access.
• ID / identity verification (if needed): we may ask you to provide proof of age (such as a government-issued ID) and/or use a verification provider to validate the information. We may also request a selfie or other steps to help confirm the ID belongs to you.

3) How we help prevent underage access

• We may restrict certain features until age screening is completed.
• We may use technical controls (including cookies, session controls, and device/browser signals) to support eligibility checks and reduce repeat access by blocked users.
• We encourage parents and guardians to supervise minors’ internet use and to use available device- and browser-level parental controls.

4) What happens if a user is suspected to be underage

• We may deny access, require verification, or limit functionality.
• We may suspend or terminate an account associated with suspected underage use or inaccurate age information.
• We may take steps to prevent re-registration or re-access from the same user or device, where appropriate.

5) Data handling for age verification

We collect and use age-related information to enforce our 21+ requirement, prevent fraud, and comply with applicable laws. If we request proof of age, we will use it only for verification and compliance purposes. We retain verification records only as long as necessary for these purposes and as required by law, audits, dispute resolution, or enforcement. If an account is determined to be underage, we may disable the account and delete or de-identify associated data unless retention is required or permitted by law.
