For parents of child users, the policy now explicitly discloses that Nintendo collects persistent identifiers such as IP addresses and device identifiers from child accounts for operational purposes including service functionality, security, fraud prevention, and contextual advertising, and states that contractual restrictions limit how service providers use this information.
