Adults-only (18+) confirmation and acceptance wording
Draft for review, not legal advice, to be reviewed by a qualified Australian lawyer. Version 0.2.
A. Adults-only (18+) confirmation
Sign-up screen (required checkbox):
[ ] I'm 18 or older.
Helper text (small, under the checkbox):
Amora Tree is for adults. Family trees can hold sensitive information about living relatives, so we ask all users to be 18 or over.
If the box isn't ticked (inline message):
Please confirm you're 18 or older to continue.
If someone says they're under 18 (friendly stop screen):
Thanks for your interest in your family's history! Amora Tree is only for adults right now. An adult in your family can add you to their tree and share it with you when you turn 18.
Invited member, first sign-in (combined with Member Terms):
[ ] I confirm I'm 18 or older.
B. Short acceptance wording for sign-up
Option 1 (recommended): one checkbox, not ticked in advance.
