WHY AGE VERIFICATION IS ESSENTIAL FOR RAINBOWVAPES
To ensure full compliance with legal regulations, RainbowVapes is committed to verifying the age of all customers who wish to purchase electronic cigarettes and vapour products containing or designed to deliver nicotine. By UK law, it is illegal to sell such products to individuals under 18. Therefore, when placing an order with RainbowVapes, you must be 18 or older. We have partnered with 1Account Age Verification to streamline this process and uphold the law.
HOW WE VERIFY YOUR AGE
When you create an account or place an order with RainbowVapes, we will request specific information, including your full name, billing address, and date of birth. This information should match the details on your driver’s license electoral roll or be consistent with the information associated with a UK credit card. Accurate data entry is crucial, as we use this information to verify your age before dispatching any products.
RainbowVapes relies on the services of 1Account to perform secure age verification checks. By engaging with our website and requesting age-restricted products or services, you grant us permission to share your information with One Account Mobile Limited (1Account) and third-party identity data providers associated with 1Account. This consent is necessary to confirm that you meet the minimum age requirements stipulated by UK age restriction legislation.
You also agree to allow 1Account to retain relevant data for future verification purposes. All data processed by 1Account is subject to stringent security measures. Periodic reviews are conducted to ensure that your data is not held for longer than necessary. For more information on how 1Account manages your data, please visit their website at 1account.net.
HOW THE VERIFICATION PROCESS WORKS
Suppose you are placing your initial order with RainbowVapes or using an alternative email address not linked to your account. In that case, the 1Account Age Verification system will prompt a pop-up modal during the order confirmation stage. This pop-up will automatically cross-reference the information provided at checkout with their verification database. If 1Account successfully confirms your age, no further action is required on your part.
However, if the verification checks do not pass, you will be given the option to undergo re-verification using the following methods:
- Mobile Phone Number
- Credit Card
- Electoral Roll
- Driver’s License
- Citizen’s Card
Alternatively, you may email a photo of your passport or driver’s license to [email protected] for verification.
Once you have successfully completed the verification process, you will not need to repeat this step for future orders. This comprehensive age verification system ensures that RainbowVapes continues to provide quality products responsibly and in accordance with the law. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation in helping us maintain a safe and compliant shopping experience.
