Unity Player Accounts uses the OAuth2 specification and is compatible with OAuth2 client libraries.

Personal data collected about app users and game players

Default Personal Data Collected (always collected in order for product to work):

  • Email address (for account creation)
  • A unique Unity Player Account ID is generated per user

Relationship under Privacy Laws

Under European Privacy Law, Unity is the Controller. You, the developer, are an Independent Controller.

You can find our legal basis for processing in our Privacy Policy.

By default, a user has to opt-in to use the service as they need to create an account using their email. Please note: this does not mean that we rely on consent as the legal basis for processing. As noted above, our legal basis is outlined in our Privacy Policy.

Data Subject Requests

Two of the most common data subject requests based in law are the request for access to personal data and the request for deletion of personal data.

Please note: we will not accept requests from developers acting on behalf of their app-users. We have a direct relationship with the app-user, and as the account can be used to sign into multiple applications, requests must come from the data subject.

Access To request a Data Subject Access Request, the player needs to email: unity-player-login-privacy@unity3d.com.

Deletion This service has native functionality to support data deletion requests. Signed-in players can delete their Unity Player Account by either selecting Support in the footer, or going to this URL: https://player-account.unity.com/ Note that deleting this account does not delete their data associated with other integrated apps and services. To delete that data, they need to contact those apps and services.

Note: Data Subject Request functions only apply to this service. If you use other services which collect app user personal data you need to review that service's documentation for how it handles data deletion requests.

This service has no additional functionality to support Data Subject Requests for data collected by integrated applications. You, the developer, are responsible for actioning them.

Dependencies

This product does not have any dependencies on other products.

Data Retention

By default, personal data is retained until deletion while an account is active. In the event of inactivity of two years, users are prompted to delete their account.

Child Privacy

This service is not intended to be used in applications with child users, unless you, the developer, have obtained Verified Parental Consent where required as outlined in the Unity Terms of Service.

Privacy Policy Requirements

It is never appropriate to use Unity’s privacy policy for your application. You need to ensure that the personal data practices are reflected in your Privacy Policy.

Additionally, you need to link out to our Privacy Policy from within your own, as required in the Unity Terms of Service.

Data Processing Agreement (DPA)

Unity DPA applies to the transfer of data for this product.
