Summary

This is FanDuel's privacy policy, explaining how the company collects and uses your personal data when you play daily fantasy sports, skill games, or Fantasy Picks on their websites and apps. The most important thing to know is that FanDuel shares your precise GPS location, financial data, contact information, and browsing behavior with advertising partners in ways that legally count as 'selling' your data under California law — and you must opt out separately on every device and browser you use, and re-opt out every time you clear your cookies. To protect yourself, visit privacy.fanduel.com/dont_sell on each device and browser you use to submit an opt-out request.

Technical Summary

This document governs FanDuel Inc. and FanDuel SG LLC's collection, use, and disclosure of personal information across its daily fantasy sports, skill games, Fantasy Picks, and related mobile platforms, relying on contractual necessity, legitimate interests, legal compliance, and consent as legal bases under applicable data protection laws. The policy creates significant obligations including mandatory identity verification (passport, driver's license, tax information) as a condition of service, and authorizes broad data sharing with subsidiaries, advertising partners, gaming regulators, leagues, sports teams, law enforcement, and third-party vendors including for targeted advertising purposes that may constitute a 'sale' or 'sharing' under CCPA. Notably, the policy discloses precise GPS-level geolocation data to third parties for advertising and compliance purposes, shares personal information including device identifiers with gaming regulators, sports leagues, college oversight bodies, and employers of individuals affiliated with competing fantasy platforms, and requires opt-outs to be renewed per browser and per device each time cookies are cleared. The policy engages CCPA (Cal. Civ. Code §1798.100 et seq.), GDPR (where EU users are implicated), COPPA (with explicit minor data sale prohibitions under age 16), FTC Act Section 5, and state gaming regulations including Iowa-specific data destruction requirements. Material compliance considerations include the breadth of third-party data sharing that triggers CCPA 'sale' and 'sharing' definitions, the adequacy of consent mechanisms for cross-device advertising, and the policy's acknowledgment that international data transfers occur to jurisdictions with weaker privacy protections.
