Age Verification
Why do we verify your age?
Have you ever wondered why age verification is necessary? At Just Smoke Cigars, we strictly adhere to the policy of not selling our products to individuals under the age of 21. To ensure compliance with this regulation, we collaborate with agechecker.net. Age checker is an independent third-party service that aids us to age verify and identity. This process guarantees that you are legally eligible to purchase tobacco items.
Understanding AgeChecker.Net
AgeChecker.Net serves as an innovative age verification tool commonly utilized by online retailers offering age-restricted commodities like electronic cigarettes, alcohol, and tobacco products. The imposition of age verification stems from various federal and state statutes. Our primary objective is to furnish websites with legally sanctioned documentation demonstrating the successful verification of a customer’s age, all while maintaining a seamless and hassle-free experience for you, the consumer.
What information is required?
For most of our customers, providing basic details such as name, date of birth, and address suffices for age verification. Where automatic verification is not feasible, you may be prompted to submit a photo of your government-issued ID. Our system often retrieves your name and address from payment or shipping details automatically. Consequently, you may only need to manually input your date of birth.
Submitting Your Photo ID
To streamline the submission process, we offer three convenient options for sending us your photo ID.
1. Capture a photo using your webcam directly within our popup.
2.Upload an existing image from any of your devices.
3. Provide your mobile number to receive a link via text, enabling you to complete the process on your phone.
Accepted Forms of Photo IDs
Where a photo ID submission is solicited to finalize the age verification process, we accept government-issued IDs like driver’s licenses, state ID cards, military IDs, or passports. It is imperative that your ID displays your name, date of birth, and expiration date clearly, with your name aligning with the information in your order. The date of birth entered in our system must correspond with the ID details, even if both indicate an age above the legal threshold. Certain IDs, such as military ones, necessitate images of both the front and back to ensure requisite information visibility. Should you encounter difficulties uploading dual images in a single submission via our popup, feel free to email them as attachments to help@agechecker.net for manual verification.
Data Security Measures
Rest assured that the information you furnish is solely used for age verification purposes, with no sharing or selling of data to external entities. Safeguarding your privacy and security is paramount to us. Our services are safeguarded with robust 256-bit AES encryption, and personal data is stored on an isolated internal network disconnected from the internet. Your date of birth, name, and address are securely retained to facilitate future verifications without the need for a photo ID. Unlike photo IDs, which are promptly deleted post-verification, you may be asked to provide consent for storing your photo ID in cases where regulatory compliance mandates it. For a comprehensive insight into our approach, kindly refer to our privacy policy.
Verification Timeline
Approximately 90% of our clientele can be verified instantaneously using essential order details like name, address, and date of birth. If automatic verification is unattainable based on these particulars, you will be directed to submit a photo ID. This seamless process unfolds without redirecting you from the checkout page. Once your photo ID is submitted, verification typically concludes within 10 to 30 seconds.
