Why it matters

The availability and ease of exercising these rights varies by jurisdiction, and users in non-EU/UK regions may find their rights more limited; the policy directs users to contact Epic but does not specify legally mandated response timeframes.

Consumer impact

Epic Games collects a wide range of personal data including gameplay behavior, device identifiers, IP address, payment details, voice chat snippets, and facial images, and shares this data with third-party ad partners, platform providers, and service vendors. Children are placed in restricted 'Cabined Accounts' with limited data collection, but parental consent unlocks a significantly broader data profile similar to adult accounts. You can manage your privacy rights, including data deletion and account closure, through Epic's Privacy Settings at epicgames.com or by submitting a request via the contact information in Section 12 of the policy.

What you can do

⚠️ These actions may provide transparency or partial mitigation but may not fully address the underlying issue. Effectiveness varies by jurisdiction and individual circumstances.
  • Delete Your Data
    Go to the Epic Games Help Center and submit a privacy data deletion request. Provide your account details and specify whether you want account deletion, data erasure, or data export. Epic is required to respond within 30 days (GDPR) or 45 days (CCPA).
  • Export Your Data
    Submit a data portability request via the Epic Help Center by selecting the privacy request category and specifying that you wish to receive a copy of your personal data in a portable format.

Applicable agencies

    The FTC has authority to enforce against systematic failures to honor consumer privacy rights under the FTC Act Section 5 and applicable privacy regulations.
