What is Verified Parental Consent (VPC), and how do I complete it?

VPC stands for Verified Parental Consent. VPC is a process by which a parent or legal guardian provides explicit and verifiable permission for collecting and processing a minor's data (usually under 18 years of age) for online services. 

The purpose of verified parental consent is to ensure that the personal data of minors is handled in a responsible and compliant manner, as children may need more support to fully understand the implications of sharing their information online.

You can complete VPC by following the below process:

1. Press "confirm and verify identity" on the Parental consent page that automatically appears on the Parent app while pairing the Miko.
2. You will then be redirected to the payment page, where you will be asked to make a ₹1 transaction (in India) & $0 (in the USA) to verify that you are an adult.
3. In the next step, you will be asked to select the preferred payment method (Credit or Debit Card/Net banking/Wallet/Pay later/UPI) and proceed with the payment.
4. Once the payment is completed, you will now be able to use the Parent app.

Please note that VPC is a mandatory requirement for customers in India & the USA region, and this requirement may not apply to customers from other regions.
