Top 5 Key Points from the Podcast with Dr. Rachel O'Connell  CEO of TrustElevateOverview and Mission of TrustElevate:TrustElevate aims to create a safer internet for children by verifying the ages of users under 16 and confirming parental responsibility. This is crucial for companies to comply with data protection laws regarding children's data.Methodology for Verification:The verification process uses a zero-knowledge privacy model, where parents provide minimal information (child's name, DOB, parent's mobile number) that is checked against hashed, authoritative data sources without storing personal data.Regulatory Environment and Compliance:The importance of regulatory compliance is highlighted, noting that regulations like GDPR have increased scrutiny on how companies process children's data.
