Consumer-impact summary

• Privacy - Yubo collects this info on all signed-up users:

Their date of birth. Yubo has a minimum age of 16, use age gates to separate users into different communities based on age. A real-time photo, taken in-app, that is used by age estimation (AI Age Verification) to confirm the date of birth provided is accurate. Their name and gender. Although their real name is needed to set up their Yubo account, they can then use a different username on their profile. A profile photo that shows their face clearly. This can be a photo from their camera roll or a selfie, but photos of other people, cartoons or pictures of pets can’t be used as the main profile picture. Their email address and mobile number. Their mobile number is later verified and Yubo sends them a confirmation code through it. Also, if they want to be verified, the user must submit an ID (passport or driving licence).

Incidents

Add one-paragraph summaries of incidents below in sub-sections, which link to each incident's main article while linking to the main article and including a short summary. It is acceptable to create an incident summary before the main page for an incident has been created. To link to the page use the "Hatnote" or "Main" templates.

If the company has numerous incidents then format them in a table (see Amazon for an example).
