StudyPug offers educational content for learners of all ages, including children under 13. StudyPug complies with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), 15 U.S.C. §§ 6501-6506.

For users under 13: A parent or guardian must register and subscribe using a valid payment method (credit card or equivalent). By completing the subscription and assigning access to a child's account, the subscribing parent or guardian provides verifiable parental consent for the collection of the child's personal information as described in this agreement and the Privacy Policy.

For educational institutions: When a school or district provides student information to StudyPug under an institutional agreement, the institution acts as the authorizing agent for data collection, consistent with FTC guidance on school consent under COPPA.
