Protecting Minors at Starsvape – Our Responsibility

At Starsvape, safeguarding young people is a responsibility we take incredibly seriously. As per all legal regulations, we ensure that no one under the age of 18 can access our range of e-cigarettes and related accessories.

In this article, we will explain:

  • Why this legislation was introduced
  • How it works
  • The steps we take to enforce it

How Do We Enforce This Policy?

1. Age Verification

To ensure compliance with the law, we’ve implemented a straightforward age verification process:

  • New Customers: You will need to provide your ID details when registering an account for a one-time verification.
  • Existing Customers: Every time you place a new order, you’ll have to re-enter your ID details to confirm your eligibility.

We’ve designed this process to be as smooth as possible, so you can enjoy a hassle-free shopping experience at Starsvape. Our friendly support team is always on hand if you have any questions or need assistance.

2. Who Does the Law Apply To?

The law applies to all retailers and online businesses involved in the sale of e-cigarettes and related products. Companies like Starsvape are legally required to verify customers’ ages before completing any sale.

Understanding the Legislation

Why Was This Law Introduced?

The legislation was introduced to expand protections for minors, extending them to include e-cigarettes and similar products. The main aim is to:

  • Prevent children and young people from being exposed to or able to obtain such items unwittingly.
  • Protect their health and well-being.

When Did the Law Start?

  • January 2016: The Federal Cabinet approved the revised Youth Protection Act.
  • 10 March 2016: The law was officially published.
  • 1 April 2016: The rules have been in force across Europe since this date.

At Starsvape, we are proud to play our part in protecting young people and upholding the highest standards within the industry.
