The updated policy now explicitly discloses that Fly.io uses third-party fraud-prevention services that collect device and browser signals (such as device identifiers and browser fingerprints) when you create an account or sign in. The policy states this data collection is mandatory and cannot be opted out of, distinguishing it from analytics collection, which remains optional. The company asserts its legal basis is its legitimate interest in protecting the platform and its users.
