  The “collected data types” in that comment seems to be copy/pasted from the actual one:

  That might be US only, where the companies have freedom to get all the customer’s data and do with it as they will.

    The list where this doesn’t apply seems to basically be every country with consumer protection laws.

    They obviously know this won’t fly pretty much anywhere other than the US so that’s all they’re trying to push.

  Most people don’t care about privacy.

    but ask those same people whether facebook should be allowed to collect and use all that data, and people will generally say ‘no’.

    Sad truth, but it’s no excuse.

  Do we know this is a thing in the EU?

    I just read the german version and compared them a little. (www.take2games.com/privacy/de/) Its about the same. But ist also reads fairly normal like any other privacy policy. I also think its in line with EU law. The collected data always relates to whatever TakeTwo service you use and whatever data you provide voluntarily or technically by using it. Thats fine by EU law.
