Check if player is allowed to access certain experiences to comply with policies

We often have in-game advertisements or reward systems for our other games. (For example, if players get all achievements in one game then they get a reward in another game.)

However, this new update means we need to hide certain games from younger players, and ignore those games when checking progress in our cross-experience reward systems.

But there is no API for this as far as I am aware. At the moment we are heuristically using a player’s ability to see ads to check if they are 13+. But really we should be able to check this directly somehow.

My game Game Discovery Hub also suffers from a similar issue. As the name suggest, game discovery hub is a game discovery system, and thus, allows players to find games and join them. However, there is no way I know of to verify that a player is allowed to join an experience prior to Teleport service returning an error message, leading to a bad user experience
