Age Restrictions

HockeyNeeds Market cares about the safety of your entire family. We understand that in the age of technology, kids are on the internet more than ever and free online classifieds can be a fun way for them to find toys, video games, clothes, and other cool items.

While we pride ourselves on being a site that the whole family can use, we also know the concerns involved with transacting online.

We want to minimize these risks. Therefore, for anyone under 16 years of age, we ask that you have your parent/guardian respond to any ads you may be interested in. Also, if you wish to post an ad on HockeyNeeds Post, have your parent/guardian do so on your behalf, so they can be directly involved in the transaction.

HockeyNeeds Market reserves the right to remove any ad if we feel it is in the best interest and for the safety of our users. Also, please read our Privacy Policy
