What it is

When you use AI-powered features like the Epic Developer Assistant, Epic collects your inputs — which may include information that identifies you — and uses them to generate outputs.

This analysis describes what Unreal Engine's agreement states, permits, or reserves. It does not constitute a legal determination about enforceability. Regulatory applicability and practical outcomes may vary by jurisdiction, enforcement context, and individual circumstances. Read our methodology

ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

User inputs to AI features may contain sensitive personal information, and the policy does not specify how long input data is retained, whether it is used to train AI models, or whether it is shared with third-party AI providers.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

Any information you type or submit into Epic's AI-powered tools is collected and processed by Epic, and the policy does not clarify whether your inputs are retained beyond the session, used to improve AI models, or processed by third-party AI infrastructure providers — creating meaningful uncertainty about the downstream use of potentially sensitive data.

How other platforms handle this

ClickUp Medium

When you use AI features of the Services, you acknowledge that your inputs may be processed by third-party AI providers. ClickUp may use anonymized and aggregated data derived from your use of the Services to improve and train AI models and features.

Writer Medium

Writer does not use Customer Data to train its AI models without explicit customer permission. Customer Data means the data, content, and information that customers and their end users submit to or through the Services.

ConductAtlas Analysis

Institutional analysis (Compliance & governance intelligence)

REGULATORY FRAMEWORK: This provision implicates GDPR Articles 13 and 22 (transparency and automated decision-making), the EU AI Act (Regulation 2024/1689) which imposes requirements on providers of general-purpose AI systems and certain prohibited/high-risk AI practices, enforced by national market surveillance authorities and the European AI Office; FTC Act Section 5 for unfair or deceptive AI data practices; and CCPA §1798.100 for disclosure of AI-processed personal data categories. The FTC's 2023 policy statement on AI and deception is also directly relevant.
