Protection of Minors Policy
The safety and welfare of minors is of the utmost
importance to Tatamax.
Tatamax’s Protection of Minors Policy outlines the
guidelines and provisions for preserving the safety of minors when using the Tatamax
platform. This policy also details the measures taken by Tatamax to protect
children’s privacy in respect to their personal data.
‘Minors’ in this context are considered to be anyone under eighteen (18) years of age. There may be certain countries in which this age limit is higher and purchasers are required to ensure they are compliant with the applicable laws in their country.
Age Restricted Goods
In accordance with Tatamax’s Prohibited Product Policy , many age restricted
products, such as alcohol and tobacco are prohibited from sale on the Tatamax
platform.
There are certain products made available by
third-party retailers using the Tatamax platform that legally require age
verification processes to be followed prior to any parcel being handed over to
a purchaser. Tatamax mandates that all third-party retailers using its platform
must use such age verification procedures where applicable.
Tatamax takes a zero tolerance approach to any
harmful or age-inappropriate content being made available to minors on its
platform. Tatamax has a robust Notice and Take Down procedure and any illegal
content brought to our attention will be removed expeditiously and measures
will be taken internally to prevent it from reappearing.
Unfortunately, some third-parties may not adhere to
our retailer terms and conditions and they may try to circumvent our content
blocks and non-compliant content or products may occasionally find their way
onto the Tatamax platform. In such circumstances, these products are removed
promptly by Tatamax when they are identified.
Retailers found to be in contravention of this
Protection of Minor’s Policy shall be escalated for internal disciplinary
action, which may include permanent removal from the Tatamax platform.
Tatamax takes its commitment to protect minors extremely seriously. If you identify any content that you consider should not be available on the Tatamax platform, please report it through our Notice and Takedown procedure (Third party complaints policy ). Responses to these notifications will be treated as a priority.
