In general, we encourage all players to:
- Use a unique password that has a combination of numbers, letters, and special characters. Never share your password with anyone, even if it’s a friend you know in real life.
- Keep your account and personal information (including your name, email, address, phone number, or real life photos, etc.) to yourself.
- Enable 2-Step Verification to prevent strangers from accessing your Roblox account.

There are a number of account settings available to keep your child’s Roblox account private.
Users age 13 and over can customize their account privacy settings. For users age 12 and under, we take extra precautions to ensure their safety and privacy by automatically enforcing more restricted settings so they can only send a direct message to other users that are accepted as friends on Roblox.
Users and their parents can enable an Account Restrictions setting from within the Security Tab of the Account Settings page. This setting only allows users to access a curated list of age-appropriate games on the platform and it prevents them from chatting with anyone. An Account PIN setting is also available, which requires a 4-digit code to make changes to the account settings.

Roblox’s state-of-the-art filtering system is actively monitored and dynamically adjusted to create a safe chat experience everywhere on the site and in-game.
While users of all ages are on this filtering system, we go a step further for users age 12 and under by placing them on a more restricted chat system to protect their privacy and safety. When a user age 12 and under signs up on Roblox, they are automatically placed on controlled privacy settings so they can only send a direct message to other users that are accepted as friends on Roblox.
We give parents the ability to restrict or disable chat entirely throughout the site and in-game. This setting can be adjusted from within the Privacy Tab of the Account Settings page. In addition, players can also control settings that allow them to block others from chatting with them on the site and in-game.

As a parent, it’s important that you remain vigilant and understand all the applications that your children are using on their computer or phone.
Parents should have ongoing conversations with their children so they can determine whether these third-party programs are age-appropriate. It’s also a good idea to monitor your kids’ gameplay and remind them about basic online safety tips. This includes not revealing personal information online and to immediately tell you if they encounter bullies or anyone exhibiting inappropriate or unwanted behavior.
Please take note of the following official Roblox websites:
- Sites beginning with https://www.roblox.com (e.g. https://www.roblox.com/giftcards)
- Sites ending with .roblox.com/ (e.g. https://corp.roblox.com/)
Beware of third-party sites that offer things like “free” or cheap Robux, etc. These are scams created to hack your child’s Roblox account and steal their email address, personal information, and money. The only safe way to buy Robux and other items is to purchase them directly on the official Roblox website, through our official apps on iOS, Android, Amazon, and the Xbox One console, and within official Roblox games.

Roblox is completely free to join and free to download.
If so inclined, users can choose to purchase Robux (our virtual currency) to buy in-game upgrades or accessories for their avatar. They can also purchase an optional “Premium” membership, which includes a Robux stipend and access to our trading and sales features. Learn more about Premium here.
Roblox provides a fun, supportive, and educational space where your child’s imagination can thrive. We encourage you to play with your child and invite them to share their gameplay experiences with you.
There are millions of games available on Roblox that you can play with your kids, such as Bird Simulator, Work at a Pizza Place, and Natural Disaster Survival. It’s a great opportunity for family bonding as well. You can teach your child the values of digital citizenship and show them that the difference between what’s right and wrong online is the same as it is in real life. Roblox also has a number of ways you can monitor your kids’ online interactions, including their creations, friends, virtual item purchases, private message history, and more.

We offer a variety of parental controls to keep Roblox safe for kids.
Parents can:
- Disable or restrict chat everywhere on Roblox (chat with everyone, just friends, or no one) from within the Privacy tab of your child's Account Settings page.
- Identify the age of the child’s account (13+ or <13) depending on their date of birth in the upper-right corner of the navigation bar and in-game.
- Set an Account PIN, which requires a 4-digit code to make any changes to the account from within the Security tab of your child's Account Settings page.
- Enable Account Restrictions from within the Security tab of your child's Account Settings page, which allows children to only access a curated list of age-appropriate games on Roblox and completely disables chat everywhere on the platform. This is an effective way of keeping kids safe from content that might be too old for them.

Robux are the virtual currency of Roblox. There are a few different ways Robux can be earned or purchased:
- You can purchase Robux on our mobile, browser, and Xbox One apps
- Accounts with a membership receive a Robux stipend
- Accounts with a membership can sell shirts, pants and place access and get a percentage of the profit
- Any user can sell game passes for Robux. Accounts without a membership will get a smaller percentage of the profit than a membership
There is no such thing as a Robux Generator. If a person, website, or game tries to tell you there is one, this is a scam and should be reported via our Report Abuse system.

There is a well-respected theory named “Constructionism,” first posed by Seymour Papert of MIT Media Lab. It holds that kids learn best when they are in the active roles of designer and builder and that this learning is accelerated when they assume these roles in a public forum. We support this theory.
We’ve observed that many of our users become deeply engaged with building complex structures and solving difficult problems when they know that the fruits of their labor will be seen and played by others. Millions of kids have used our tools to imagine what it’s like to explore the farthest reaches of outer space, build a vast metropolis, or design a vehicle with realistic suspension and physics systems. The level of creativity the Roblox community exhibits, along with the time and care they spend building, never fails to astonish us.
