What’s the Reason for Age Verification?

To comply with the UK law implemented in 2015, it’s illegal to sell electronic cigarettes or vaping products to individuals under the age of 18. Therefore, it’s crucial for us to accurately confirm that all our customers meet this legal requirement. As an online store, it’s challenging for us to determine your age, which is why we rely on reputable age verification providers to verify your age.

How is Your Age Verified?

At VAPEIGHT, we rely on AgeChecked, a trusted third-party digital verification provider, to verify your age. AgeChecked conducts reliable independent checks from official records to ensure that you are 18 years of age or older.

To complete the age verification process, we will request your full name and billing address when you place an order on our website. It’s crucial that you provide accurate information that matches your official documents such as your driving license or electoral roll.

By making a purchase through our store, you agree to share your information with AgeChecked LTD. This consent is necessary to confirm that you satisfy the required identity and minimum age verification criteria as mandated by UK legislation. For more information about how AgeChecked handles your personal data, please refer to their website at www.agechecked.com.

Once your age is verified, your member account will be marked as age verified. However, if you modify your personal information, we’ll perform another check to maintain the security of your account.

What Happens If Your Age Verification Fails?

The age verification process is typically smooth and straightforward, and there is usually no need for any additional input from you. However, in the rare event that we encounter difficulties in verifying your age, you will be prompted to try a secondary verification option. We may require you to provide information that matches your utility bill or driving license to verify your age manually. If you choose not to provide this information, you can cancel your order and we will refund your payment.

It’s worth noting that if you’re under the age of 18, the age verification process will fail and we won’t be able to proceed with your order.

Is There a Fee for Age Verification?

No, there is no charge for age verification. We take full responsibility for verifying your age to comply with the law and safeguard our customers.
