Where did you get that from? You are an independent contractor they can ask a lot of things. If you do not tell them you will not get hired. And just like any job if you fill out an application they can find out either way.

Image is as important as reality.

They ask those things and a whole lot more you would never think about. Maybe not directly, but someone wants to give you games where thousands and million dollars are at stake, you better tell them something about yourself and age is a factor.
