What it is

FanDuel requires you to provide government-issued ID documents like your passport or driver's license as a mandatory condition of using certain parts of the service.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

Refusing to provide your passport or driver's license information means you may be denied access to core FanDuel services, while providing it creates a record of your most sensitive identity documents on FanDuel's systems and potentially those of their verification vendors.

Why it matters (compliance & risk perspective)

Mandatory collection of government ID documents represents a significant data sensitivity risk — if this data is breached, consumers face identity theft consequences far more severe than typical data breaches involving email addresses or preferences.

View original clause language
In addition to the above, we may need to verify your identity in order for you to use some aspects of the Services. For purposes of verification, we may also collect the following personal information from you (for compliance reasons, provision of this information, when requested, is a mandatory condition of using our Services): passport information; driving license information; other identification documents; permanent and temporary address; tax-related information; and other information as may be required to verify you in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.

Institutional analysis (Compliance & legal intelligence)

REGULATORY FRAMEWORK: Collection of government-issued identification documents implicates state identity theft protection statutes, including California's Identity Information Protection Act, and New York SHIELD Act (N.Y. General Business Law §899-aa). Driver's license data collection is regulated in many states. Tax-related information collection may implicate IRS regulations and state tax authority requirements. The FTC Act Section 5 governs security practices around sensitive identity data. Gaming commission regulations in all U.S. states where FanDuel operates require KYC (Know Your Customer) procedures, which is the primary legal basis for this collection.
