#Discord privacy

Discord has issued a clarification on its upcoming age assurance update. Discord has addressed concerns around ID uploads and facial scans. The company emphasized that most users will be able to continue using Discord as they do today without being asked to confirm their age. According to Discord, age verification is only required for users who want to access age-restricted servers, channels or modify certain safety settings. For many adult users, Discord can already determine age group through its internal age inference system, allowing access to adult features without any additional steps. When extra confirmation is needed, Discord offers privacy-focused options through trusted partners. Facial age estimation runs entirely on a user’s device, and video scans are never sent to Discord or third parties. Discord states that it receives only the user’s age group, not their identity.
