An update on how we confirm your age group on Discord
Summary
Discord announces an automated, privacy-preserving age-assurance approach that places most users (over 90%) into an age group without requiring identity checks. The company uses account signals (like account age and server activity) rather than messages content to determine age groups and offers multiple non-biometric options to confirm age if needed. Teen protections are expanded, with restrictions on adult content for teen accounts, and data handling emphasizes vendor transparency and on-device biometric processing where applicable.
