Epic Games made a formatting-only change to contact email addresses across their Privacy Policy on May 1, 2026. The actual addresses (privacy@support.epicgames.com, dpo@support.epicgames.com, representative@mishcon.com, privacy@harmonixmusic.com) are unchanged. No new obligations are created under GDPR, CCPA, LGPD, or any other framework. No compliance action is required.
This change is purely cosmetic — email address display formatting only. No new regulatory exposure is created. Applicable frameworks that govern the underlying contact information requirements include: GDPR Art. 13(1)(a) and Art. 37-39 (DPO contact details), UK GDPR equivalent provisions, LGPD Art. 41 (DPO appointment and contact), and Cal. Civ. Code §1798.130 (CCPA consumer request methods). None of these are triggered by a formatting change where the functional contact information remains identical.
