TL;DR — tap to expand +

Every TopVapeFlavors order is age-verified at checkout through a federally compliant third party (BlueCheck or AgeChecked). At delivery, the carrier requires the recipient to show valid government-issued ID showing 21+. If automated verification fails, we may request additional documentation. Records are retained for the federal minimum of 4 years.

Why TopVapeFlavors Verifies Age on Every Order (PACT Act)

The federal Prevent All Cigarette Trafficking Act (PACT Act) plus state-level vape sale regulations require US vape retailers to verify the buyer is 21+ on every sale. There is no opt-out, no 'self-attest' override, and no waiver for repeat customers.

How TopVapeFlavors Verifies 21+ Age at Checkout

When you place an order, we route your name, address, and date of birth to a federally compliant age-verification third party (BlueCheck or AgeChecked). They cross-reference public records and return a pass/fail in under 5 seconds.

If you pass, your order proceeds normally. If you fail, you're prompted to upload a government-issued ID image (driver's license, state ID, passport) for manual review. The image is held by the third-party verifier, not us — we only receive the pass/fail.

AT DELIVERY

Adult-Signature ID Check at the Door — How It Works

Every TopVapeFlavors package requires adult-signature delivery. The carrier (UPS, USPS, or FedEx) will check the recipient's government-issued ID at the door to confirm they are 21+. If no one 21+ is available, the carrier will either re-attempt the next business day or hold the package at the local depot.

If the package is returned to us, we'll refund the order minus return shipping. We do not waive the signature requirement.

What Happens If TopVapeFlavors Age Verification Fails

Automated verification can fail for legitimate reasons (recent move, name change, thin credit history). If yours fails, you'll get an email with instructions to upload an ID image to the verifier directly. Manual review typically clears in under 2 business hours.

If you cannot pass manual review, we refund the order. We do not retain the ID image — only the verifier does.

Age-Verification Record Retention at TopVapeFlavors (4-Year Federal Minimum)

Federal regulation requires us to retain the age-verification reference (a transaction ID from the verifier) for a minimum of 4 years from the date of sale. We do not retain the underlying ID image; the third-party verifier does, under their own data-retention policy.

FAQ

Common Questions

Why does Olit Hookalit require 21+ ID verification?
Federal law (Tobacco 21 / Reauthorization Act) requires all retailers selling vapor and disposable-vape products to verify buyers are 21 or older. This applies at the federal level regardless of state law. topvapeflavors.com performs age verification at checkout through a federally compliant third-party service, and again at delivery via adult-signature requirement.
What ID does Olit Hookalit accept?
Any US government-issued photo ID with a clear date of birth: state driver's license, state ID card, US passport, US military ID. The verification service performs an OCR + database cross-check; you upload an image, the service confirms or rejects within seconds. We don't store the ID image — only the verification result and timestamp.
Does Olit Hookalit store my ID?
No. The ID upload goes directly to the federally compliant verification provider. They retain the verification result and a hashed reference for up to 30 days for audit. We store only a yes/no verified flag and timestamp linked to your account. The image itself is never on our servers.
What if my age verification fails?
Failed verifications usually mean the ID image was blurry, the database couldn't match the address on file, or the ID has expired. The verifier returns a specific failure reason and you'll see it at checkout. Re-upload a clearer image or use a different valid ID. Repeated failures may trigger manual review — email service@topvapeflavors.com with a clear photo to escalate.
Will Olit Hookalit sell to someone under 21?
No, never. We will not knowingly ship to anyone under 21. Federal Tobacco 21 law prohibits sale; our compliance posture is zero-tolerance. If we discover an account is under 21 (false verification, attempted fraud), we cancel the order, refund in full, and disable the account permanently. There are no exceptions for any reason.
Do I need to show ID at delivery?
Yes. Adult-signature delivery is required on every shipment. The carrier driver (USPS, UPS, FedEx) checks government-issued ID at the door to confirm the recipient is 21 or older before releasing the package. If no one 21+ is available, the carrier reattempts or holds the package at the local depot.
