2. Children

Shturko products are designed for children roughly aged 2–8, but accounts, orders and consent are for a parent/guardian or other adult. In Bulgaria the digital age of consent for information society services is 14. We do not create accounts for children under 14.

  • Order data (if/when commerce is active) — name, address, phone for delivery; no commercial activity at present.
  • Game progress — levels/unlocks tied to an account or a service cookie.
  • Waitlist — email, language, consent date and a personal 20% discount code; to send you the code and write when the shop opens (consent; unsubscribe link in every email).
