Overview

At TheOGs, we are committed to providing a safe and secure environment for all users. This Child Safety Standards page outlines our policies and practices regarding the protection of minors (individuals under 18 years of age) who may interact with our job swipe match platform.

By using our services, you agree to this Child Safety Standards policy along with our User Agreement, Privacy Policy, Cookie Policy, and Copyright Policy.

Age Restrictions

Our service is intended solely for adults seeking employment or hiring opportunities through our swipe-based matching system. Users must meet the following requirements:

• Have the legal capacity to enter into employment contracts
• Comply with all applicable labor laws and regulations in their region

We employ age verification mechanisms during account registration to ensure compliance with these requirements.
