You don't have any security measures on your phone (PIN/pattern/password)?

Samsung uses your DOB to verify that you are the age of majority in your region. Minors 13 and under fall under different regulatory requirements and certain features/services must be restricted.

Your birthday does not show to other users.  There is an age requirement for this app.

It still displays under "profile info" on the device. OP's concern seems to be that anyone who finds the device can see the user's birthday. Hence my comment about protecting it with a device lock.
