I'm porting educational game to Windows Store. Game downloads levels from web site. I don't think they are moderated, so it seems I must restrict age rating to 12+. However, most of the content is good, and I can ensure say 100 levels are suitable for any age. Then I could bundle that part of the content with my application.
However, I want 12+ users still have access to full set of the web site provided levels. How do I provide such parental control in C# Windows Store application? Are there any classes that provide age/parental control status, or maybe I just need to ask user for his age before accessing unmoderated web site data?
Applications targets Windows 8 (not yet 8.1)
This functionality was introduced in Windows 8.1 via the ContentRestrictions namespace, so unfortunately there is no built-in way to do this in Windows 8.
You could use the Live SDK to get access to the user's age, assuming they didn't lie in their profile (and assuming you can get that data for Child Accounts; I don't know if there are special rules for children).
