How to Determine if Your Roblox Account is Under 13
You can determine if your Roblox account is under 13 by checking the privacy settings, which update automatically to 13+ on the user’s 13th birthday if the birth date on the account is correct, or by looking at the URL link which will have web.roblox.com for under 13 players instead of www.roblox.com for 13+ players. The account’s age group is displayed in the upper-right corner of the browser as either 13+ or <13, and this is also displayed while in experiences, but an account’s age group is not displayed to other players.
Understanding Age Restrictions on Roblox
Roblox is committed to providing safety and privacy protection for its users, and because of COPPA regulations, users under the age of 13 have certain restrictions, including limited chat functionality and access to specific content.
