What record it asks for
Logging duty
Section 4.1 bars collecting a minor under 14 years of age’s personal information from the minor without parental or tutor consent, unless clearly for the minor’s benefit. It names no log, register or record of the consent, sets no period, and says nobody may demand a record, so no logging duty is found.
