Why We Verify Your Age

Under UK and EU law, it is illegal to sell vaping products, including e-cigarettes and nicotine-containing items, to anyone under 18 years of age. To comply with these regulations and ensure responsible sales, we require all customers to verify their age before purchasing from nextgenvapes.co.uk.

How We Verify Your Age

When you place an order (either as a guest or registered user), you will be asked to provide:
✅ Full legal name (as it appears on official documents)
✅ Billing address (must match electoral roll or financial records)
✅ Date of birth

We use AgeChecked, an industry-leading age verification service, to confirm your details. This process:
✔ Does not affect your credit score (it is not a credit check).
✔ Does not store your personal data after verification.

If AgeChecked cannot verify your age (e.g., due to a recent address change or nickname use), we may:

• Reformat your details for a second check.

• Request additional proof (e.g., UK driver’s license or passport photo).

Your Data Security

🔒 Nextgen Vapes does not store your ID documents. AgeChecked processes verification in real-time and discards the data immediately after confirmation.
🔒 One-time verification – Once confirmed, future orders skip re-verification (for registered accounts).

For full details, see our Privacy Policy.
