Under UK and EU law, it is illegal to sell vaping products, including e-cigarettes and nicotine-containing items, to anyone under 18 years of age. To comply with these regulations and ensure responsible sales, we require all customers to verify their age before purchasing from www.vapes-wholesale.co.uk.
When you place an order (either as a guest or registered user), you will be asked to provide:
✅ Full legal name (as it appears on official documents)
✅ Billing address (must match electoral roll or financial records)
✅ Date of birth
We use AgeChecked, an industry-leading age verification service, to confirm your details. This process:
✔ Does not affect your credit score (it is not a credit check).
✔ Does not store your personal data after verification.
If AgeChecked cannot verify your age (e.g., due to a recent address change or nickname use), we may:
Reformat your details for a second check.
Request additional proof (e.g., UK driver’s license or passport photo).
Your Data Security
🔒 Vapes Wholesale does not store your ID documents. AgeChecked processes verification in real-time and discards the data immediately after confirmation.
🔒 One-time verification – Once confirmed, future orders skip re-verification (for registered accounts).
For full details, see our Privacy Policy.
