In particular dose PlayFab story any IP addresses of players? GDPR considers IP addresses private information and specific permission must be requested to store that data. There is a 2 year period to comply. I just want to make sure understand the work companies, to whom I promoted PlayFab, are going to do to become compliant or is PlayFab on this?
Yes, we will be ensuring that PlayFab will be compliant with the General Data Protection Regulation ahead of its enforcement in 2018. Specifically, that's to ensure that the impacted data is appropriately managed for player profiles (all the things we collect automatically). You should also make sure to discuss your planned usage for any player-related data with your own legal counsel, to make sure you'll be compliant. This checklist is also a good source of info to consider: https://gdprchecklist.io/
Our client is concerned about what information playfab is collecting. He is currently writing the terms for our application in cooperation with a lawyer and he needs to know what technical information will be stored by playfab and for how long. (ip adress, http referrer..) Is there anything that we should state?
Can you clarify what their concerns are? As stated in our blog post (https://blog.playfab.com/blog/gdpr), we are providing the API calls needed to ensure GDPR compliance, which requires that you are able to inform players of what data is stored, and to allow them to request deletion.
