Can my child who is turning 21 this year provide consent for himself/herself?
To provide consent for oneself, your child would need to be at least 21 years old based on his/her date of birth when he/she signs the consent form. Before that, his/her Birth/Adoptive Parent or Legal Guardian (if any) would need to provide consent on his/her behalf. This will ensure that his/her personal data is used only with proper knowledge and consent.
