Interpretive note: The content of the Consumer Health Privacy document is not available in the provided text; the significance and scope of this notice cannot be assessed without reviewing that document.

"Privacy and Cookies Consumer Health Privacy Terms of use Trademarks About our ads © 2026 Microsoft Your Privacy ChoicesExcerpt from Minecraft's Privacy Statement
(1) REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: Several U.S. states have enacted consumer health data privacy statutes, including Washington's My Health MY Data Act and Nevada's consumer health data law, which impose specific consent, disclosure, and deletion obligations on entities collecting health-related data. The separate Consumer Health Privacy link may indicate Microsoft's compliance posture under one or more of these statutes. The FTC's health breach notification rule and Section 5 authority are also potentially relevant. (2) GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: Medium. Without reviewing the content of the Consumer Health Privacy document, it is not possible to assess whether the disclosures meet applicable statutory requirements or whether consent mechanisms are adequately implemented. The existence of the separate notice signals that health data processing is within scope of Minecraft's data practices. (3) JURISDICTION FLAGS: Washington state, Nevada, and other states with enacted consumer health privacy laws create heightened exposure. EU and UK users may have additional rights under GDPR special category data provisions if health data is processed. (4) CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: Organizations deploying Minecraft in healthcare-adjacent or educational contexts should request and review the Consumer Health Privacy document to assess whether applicable consent and data handling obligations are addressed in the service terms. (5) COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Compliance teams should obtain the Consumer Health Privacy document, assess whether it satisfies the specific statutory requirements of applicable state health data privacy laws, and verify that consent mechanisms and deletion procedures are implemented consistently with those requirements.
