Riot Games Privacy Notice

This document is Riot Games' global Privacy Notice, governing the collection, use, storage, and sharing of personal data across all Riot Games products and services, with stated legal bases including contractual necessity, legitimate interests, consent, and legal obligation depending on jurisdiction. The notice states that Riot collects a broad range of data categories including account information, payment data, device and hardware identifiers, gameplay and behavioral data, voice and text communications, and location information, and the terms authorize sharing this data with affiliates, service providers, advertising partners, and in connection with business transactions such as mergers or acquisitions. Notable provisions include the collection and potential recording of voice and text chat content for safety and moderation purposes, the use of anti-cheat software (Vanguard) that operates at a kernel level and collects hardware and software information, and the use of behavioral and gameplay data for targeted advertising, which together represent a meaningful scope of data collection that users may not fully anticipate. The notice engages GDPR for EU/EEA users (with Riot Games Ltd. identified as the data controller for those users), CCPA/CPRA for California residents, COPPA and equivalent frameworks for minors, and references compliance with LGPD for Brazilian users and PDPA for relevant Asian jurisdictions; the enforceability and scope of certain data practices may vary significantly by jurisdiction, particularly regarding children's data, advertising profiling, and communications monitoring.
