Children & ZAHN

Who Can Use ZAHN?

ZAHN is intended for users aged 13 or older. This is to ensure compliance with child-safety and data-protection laws, and to keep the platform safe and appropriate for all users.

Why 13+?

Under GDPR and other youth-protection regulations, apps that process personal data — especially location data — must have strict safeguards when it comes to minors.
Setting our minimum age at 13 helps ensure:

• Proper handling of personal and location data

• Appropriate consent procedures

• A safe environment for all users

If You’re a Parent or Guardian

We believe in empowering families with transparency. If your child (13+) uses ZAHN:

• Talk to them about how Bubbles, Spots, and location-sharing work

• Encourage them to only connect with people they genuinely trust

• Remind them that they can pause sharing anytime with Ghost Mode

We do not provide parental monitoring tools. ZAHN is built for mutual safety, not surveillance.

If a User Under 13 Signs Up

If we become aware that someone under 13 is using ZAHN, we will:

• Close the account

• Delete all associated data
  This isn’t punitive, it’s to comply with legal requirements and keep young children protected.

Staying Safe Online

We encourage all young users (13+) to:

• Only join Bubbles with people they trust

• Reach out to a parent, guardian, or trusted adult if anything makes them uncomfortable

• Contact emergency services if they feel in immediate danger. ZAHN is a support tool, not an emergency response service
