I am an owner of Xcom 2 since the year it came out, but recently the game contains a NEW UPDATED policy policy and user agreement, which is very distasteful. At the bottom, I summarize. From the new policy I quote:
From their Privacy Policy section last updated May of 21:
—Gameplay Information
"
When you use the Services on hardware connected to the Internet, Take-Two receives information about your gameplay even if you are not specifically notified at the time or do not take any actions to actively give us this information. Gameplay information includes your console ID, gaming service ID, game achievements, game scores and performance, IP address, MAC address or other device ID, other console / device information, and other information and statistics regarding your Service use. We collect gameplay information even if you do not register for the Services and we may collect gameplay information while you are offline. Offline gameplay information is transmitted to Take-Two when you next connect to the Internet. We may combine gameplay information with other information we have about you.
"
Categories of Information Disclosed
"
In the last 12 months, Take-Two has disclosed each of the categories of personal information described above (e.g., Identifier/Contact Information, Commercial Information, Internet/Electronic Activity, and Profile Inferences) for a business or commercial purpose.
"
Please spread the warning to any potential purchasers and players that you can. We can not allow them to force people to agree to this CHANGE more than 5 years after purchase. If you do not agree to the policy, it clearly does these things anyways, per its text. The game also will bring the pop up on your screen everytime you reject the policy, until you accept. It also restricts you from leaderboards, daily challenges and using online services. Please verify this information if you would like. You guys have been warned. I recommend uninstalling and possibly reformatting to get this off.
