See do not tip in these scam apps. The drivers don’t believe you if you tell them you’ll tip in cash, but if you pretip in the app they might not get it.

From the link (one of the many things Walmart was doing wrong):
Deceiving consumers that “100% of tips go to the driver.” Despite this promise, Walmart, on multiple occasions, failed to provide collected tips to drivers as promised and did not refund the tip to customers either.

The #FTC will not enforce #COPPA against companies using #ageverification tools, provided they follow specific guidelines. These include not using age data for anything other than verification, not retaining the data, and ensuring third parties maintain confidentiality. therecord.media/ftc-says-it-wo #tech #media #news

Regulatory update: The Federal Trade Commission issues COPPA enforcement clarification on age verification technologies.
Operators may collect and process personal data strictly for age determination without prior parental consent — if compliance controls include:
• Purpose limitation
• Data minimization + prompt deletion
• Security safeguards
• Third-party contractual assurances
• Transparency notice
• Reasonable accuracy validation

Formal COPPA Rule review forthcoming.
For security leaders:
Age verification systems must be architected with privacy-by-design, limited retention, and robust vendor risk management.

How are you validating accuracy while minimizing data exposure?

#FTC says it won’t enforce #COPPA against proper use of #ageverification tools
Companies have historically worried that collecting data for age verification could violate the FTC’s #Children’s Online Privacy Protection Rule (COPPA Rule), which requires commercial websites and online service operators to obtain parental consent before collecting, using or disclosing personal information of children under 13.
