Just wondered why student licences are only available at 13..

My daughter has been using Photoshop Elements then for the last year PSCC. She is nowhere near 13 but wants to start using other apps but we cannot sign up as she is too young.

Any Ideas why the eligibility is set so high?

This is essentially related to the Federal Children's Online Privacy Protection Rule: Children’s Online Privacy Protection Rule: A Six-Step Compliance Plan for Your Business | Federal Trade Commission

Peddling software or a process which may require personalized information from a person younger than 13 is not OK under the law.

Thanks for your reply.
I understand now why
Shame there isn't a way where the parents can sign up for it on their behalf. However the law is the law!
