They differ in the features that users can access and the way that Arduino handles [personal data](https://www.arduino.cc/en/privacy-policy/). Both account types require the minor's account to be linked to a person exercising parental authority (for convenience, we refer to this person as a “parent”). Learn more about Arduino accounts for minors below.

After turning 14, users of Junior accounts will be prompted to upgrade to a [Restricted Account](#Restricted-accounts), for users who are at least 14 and below 16 years old. When a Junior Account is upgraded to a Restricted Account, the user will be prompted to provide a username of their own choosing and an email address that will be linked to their account.

When the minor initiates creation of the account, it is necessary to provide a parent’s email, and the parent must approve the account creation. Arduino will process the [personal data](https://www.arduino.cc/en/privacy-policy/) of the parent. The parent will need to create an account if they don’t already have one in order to approve the creation of the Restricted Account. If after 30 days the parent or guardian hasn’t created an account and approved creation of the Restricted Account, the Restricted Account will not be created and all data provided will be deleted promptly.

A parent can also [initiate creation of the account from their profile page](https://support.arduino.cc/hc/en-us/articles/360022234360-Create-an-Arduino-account-for-juniors#adult-create). If the minor is at least 14 and below 16 years, as indicated by the date of birth provided by the parent, the minor will be prompted to upgrade as described in [Upgrading to a Restricted Account](#Upgrading-to-a-Restricted-Account).
