Roblox updated its privacy policy on April 29, 2026 to add three new disclosures: clarification of who can see personalized versus non-personalized ads, description of information-sharing practices with authorities, and a summary of recent changes. The policy document itself was restructured to include a 'Summary of Recent Changes' section noting an effective date of April 30, 2026. These are disclosure additions rather than changes to data collection or processing practices.
The updated policy adds explicit language describing how Roblox handles personalized and non-personalized advertising, and clarifies practices for sharing information with authorities. These are disclosure additions to the existing privacy framework rather than changes to underlying data practices. The policy takes effect April 30, 2026. No new consumer action or opt-out mechanism is required by these additions.
The updated policy provides explicit disclosure of two operational practices previously not clearly described in summary form: ad personalization logic and authority data-sharing procedures. These clarifications improve transparency about how user data is used and disclosed, which affects how users may understand their privacy on the platform.
→ Users operating under the updated policy from April 30, 2026 will be subject to the clarified ad personalization and authority data-sharing practices as written.
Policy now explicitly clarifies which users see personalized ads and which see non-personalized ads on Roblox.
Policy adds language describing practices for sharing user information with legal authorities.
Policy includes a new summary section noting policy updates effective April 30, 2026.
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
Roblox added three disclosure sections to its privacy policy effective April 30, 2026: clarification of ad personalization mechanics, description of authority data-sharing practices, and a summary of recent policy changes. These appear to be disclosure enhancements rather than substantive changes to data processing. Compliance teams should verify that the new authority-sharing disclosure aligns with applicable data protection frameworks (GDPR, CCPA, LGPD, etc.) and that ad personalization language complies with advertising regulation in target markets. No material change to vendor obligations or data processing contracts is evident from the summary.
