ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

Automated profiling for consequential decisions is a recognized risk in data protection frameworks, and this commitment addresses that category explicitly, with an extension to known minors.

Interpretive note: The under-18 protection is conditioned on 'actual knowledge,' meaning users whose age Unreal Engine does not know are not explicitly covered by this clause's extension.
