ProofAge Age Verification

ProofAge Age Verification integrates the hosted ProofAge verification flow with WordPress and WooCommerce.

With this plugin you can:

• protect the full site or selected WordPress pages and post categories
• protect WooCommerce products and product categories
• block add-to-cart, cart, checkout, and Store API flows until verification is complete
• show a full-page gate or a blocking overlay, depending on the protected content
• launch the hosted ProofAge flow in an iframe modal, the current window, or a new tab
• store a verification snapshot on WooCommerce orders and show it in the admin order details panel
• localize gate copy and pass the supported storefront language to ProofAge when creating a verification

The plugin uses the hosted ProofAge flow and webhooks together with browser-side return reconciliation and status polling.

External service disclosure:

• this plugin requires a ProofAge account and valid API credentials
• it connects to the ProofAge API to create verifications, fetch verification status, and process signed webhook callbacks
• when a shopper starts verification, the plugin sends limited verification request data to ProofAge, such as an external identifier, callback or return URL, supported storefront language, and verification-related metadata
• the plugin stores limited verification state locally in WordPress and WooCommerce, including verification status, verification ID, external ID, return URL, timestamps, session token, and optional order verification metadata
• ProofAge Privacy Policy: https://proofage.xyz/privacy
• ProofAge Terms of Service: https://proofage.xyz/terms

Supported browser flows:

• open the hosted verification in an iframe modal on the current page
• redirect in the current window
• open the hosted verification in a new tab

This version intentionally does not support:

• a custom in-page ProofAge capture UI
• theme-specific quick-view integrations beyond the generic add-to-cart interception hooks
