COPPA compliance

Hello!
One of our clients is inquiring about analytics and data collected by ARDK during a multiplayer session. Basically, is ARDK COPPA compliant specifically while using the multiplayer feature?

Hi Angeline,

Thanks for your question. Our terms of service require developers to ensure that any apps created using the Lightship ARDK comply with applicable laws, including COPPA, and we encourage our developers to work with their own legal advisors to ensure this is the case.

Our multiplayer APIs currently collect geospatial data from end-users which is temporarily stored on our servers to allow multiple players to view and interact with the same virtual objects at the same time in a shared physical space.

Please keep an eye on the portal and release notes to stay up to date with any changes to ARDK data collection in the future.
