What is Age Verification?

Age verification can be refer to any online system that verifies a person's age to ensure they are legally able to make purchases, use services or access particular content - this could be anything from alcohol, tobacco and gambling, to adult content or certain media such as films or video games that have a mature rating.

Why Should I Verify?

BateWorld is intended to be a safe and welcoming community for all. Regardless whether you live in a US state or country with age verification laws in place, getting verified is a quick, one-step process to demonstrate you’re of legal age to use this site. It also lets everyone else feel sure that it’s safe to enjoy your photos, videos, and live streams on VidChat. 

Verifying doesn't cost you anything and we offer everyone who verifies a FREE 30-day Premium membership that will expire automatically after the 30 days. No payment details required.

We use PrivateAV as our verification partner and age estimation is used in the first instance, meaning no ID required. However, if age estimation cannot be determined for any reason, ID would be required. Further reading on verification can be found in the verification FAQ folder.

PrivateAV is designed to protect user privacy, with no personal data ever stored, logged or written to disk. All inputs are erased the moment verification completes. PrivateAV is also fully aligned with global privacy laws.

If you live in a US state or country that requires age verification by law, please see, Why Am I Required to Age Verify? You can also select the Verify button on the page requesting you to do so and follow the instructions.
