Cannot change my current car.

I bought a new car and wanted to enter it.

When ever I enter my new car, I get the error "You have entered an invalid birthday"

I do not want to enter any birthday at all, but the system prevents me to update my car if I don't.

Birthdays are a key element in identity theft and nobody should display his birthday publicly.

My new car is a "2010 ML350 4MATIC" - can you enter that for me, please?

Hi,

There is an option in your user control panel, linked below, to hide your birth date from public view. A birth-date is required to comply with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Rule ("COPPA").

RULE SUMMARY:
COPPA imposes certain requirements on operators of websites or online services directed to children under 13 years of age, and on operators of other websites or online services that have actual knowledge that they are collecting personal information online from a child under 13 years of age.

The birth date year entered must be greater than 13 years ago. I hope this helps.


Bob
