FanDuel updated its Privacy Policy on April 29, 2026 to reflect a one-year refresh (dated April 28, 2026 instead of April 28, 2025). The policy scope was also revised: it now explicitly excludes the 'Fantasy Picks' website and its mobile app from the privacy policy's coverage, whereas previously the Picks Site was included alongside the DFS Site and Skill Games Site. This means the privacy protections and data practices described in this policy may not apply to your Fantasy Picks account or activity on that platform.
The updated privacy policy no longer explicitly covers the FanDuel Fantasy Picks platform (www.fanduel.com/picks) and its mobile app. Previously, the policy stated it applied to the DFS Site, Skill Games Site, and Picks Site together. Now only the DFS Site and Skill Games Site are listed in the policy scope. This creates ambiguity about what privacy rules, data collection practices, retention periods, and user rights apply to your Fantasy Picks account. You should review FanDuel's website to determine whether a separate privacy policy governs Fantasy Picks data, or contact FanDuel directly to clarify what privacy terms apply to that service.
A privacy policy that explicitly lists which platforms and services it covers creates user expectation and legal protection. Removing a named service (Fantasy Picks) from that scope without clearly stating an alternative privacy framework may confuse users about their rights and may trigger regulatory scrutiny under state privacy laws (CCPA, VCCPA, CPA, CTDPA) and GDPR, which require transparent disclosure of data practices.
→ Check FanDuel's website or contact support to identify what privacy policy governs your Fantasy Picks account and data.
→ Review any separate privacy terms for Picks to understand how your data is collected, used, and protected on that platform.
→ You may not know what privacy rules, data retention limits, or user rights apply to your Fantasy Picks account.
→ If FanDuel processes Picks data under different (or less protective) terms than the main policy, you may lack awareness of those differences.
Fantasy Picks platform removed from stated privacy policy coverage; users may lack clarity on which privacy terms apply to their Picks account and data.
This change record describes what was added, removed, or modified in the document. Analysis reflects what the updated agreement states or permits. It does not constitute a legal determination about enforceability. Applicability may vary by jurisdiction. Methodology
Users of Fantasy Picks no longer have an explicitly stated privacy policy that describes how their data is collected, used, or protected on that platform.
FanDuel's privacy policy now explicitly excludes the Fantasy Picks platform from its stated scope, creating a coverage gap that may implicate regulatory obligations under GDPR (EEA users), CCPA (California), and general state privacy laws (VA, CT, CO, etc.). Organizations that process data through FanDuel for any purpose should determine whether Fantasy Picks data is subject to a separate privacy policy or whether its exclusion from the stated policy creates compliance risk. Regulatory bodies including state AGs and the FTC may view a policy exclusion of a named service as misleading if users reasonably expect unified privacy protections across the brand. If FanDuel intends to process Picks data under materially different terms or lesser protections, explicit disclosure of those terms may be required under applicable transparency mandates.
GDPR (Article 13/14 transparency requirements for EEA users), CCPA (California Civil Code §1798.100 et seq., transparency and user rights), VCCPA (Virginia Consumer Data Protection Act), CPA (Colorado Privacy Act), CTDPA (Connecticut Data Privacy Act), FTC Act §5 (unfair or deceptive practices)
