3 findings, in full

The first 3 of this report’s 15 key findings, complete — claim, reasoning, and the policy’s own wording.

Camera & Photos If you are 13 or older, camera content is stored and checked for safety

What this means

Video used to generate animation key frames is the exception — the policy says it is processed on your device and not shared.

If you are 13 or older and use Roblox features that require your camera, Roblox collects, processes and stores that content to deliver the feature and to check it for safety. Video used to generate animation key frames is the exception: it is processed on your device and is not shared with Roblox or any third party.

Why this matters

Camera content is examined as well as delivered. The policy also names the case where the processing stays on the device.

What the policy says

Camera-enabled features and uploads (users 13 and older) If you use Roblox features that require the use of your camera or that enable you to upload content that contains your Personal Information, including photos, we will collect, process, and store that content to accomplish the purpose of the feature, including processing the content for safety purposes. Video used to generate animation key frames is processed on your device and is not shared with Roblox or any third parties. For more information, please refer to the Roblox Facial Animation Privacy Notice . For information about how Roblox uses ID Verification, please refer to the Roblox Facial Media Capture Privacy Notice .

Microphone & Audio If you are 13 or older, Roblox uses your voice audio for safety

What this means

The stated purpose is making voice-related services safer, including detecting and combating abuse and other harmful activity.

If you are 13 or older and use Roblox's audio features, Roblox also uses the audio captured through your device to make its voice-related services safer, including to detect and combat abuse and other harmful activity on its Services.

Why this matters

Voice moderation means audio is analyzed rather than only carried. The age condition is part of the practice.

What the policy says

If you use Roblox’s audio features, we will monitor, collect, use, and store audio captured through your device: - to enable voice chat, - to make our voice-related services safer, including to detect and combat abuse and other harmful activity on our Services,

Tracking Roblox collects persistent identifiers when a child under 13 signs up

What this means

These are identifiers tied to the device, collected for its internal operations and to provide the services.

When a child under 13 signs up, Roblox also collects persistent identifiers — information tied to your device — for its internal operations and to provide the services to you and other users.

Why this matters

A persistent identifier follows a device rather than an account, so it can outlast signing out or changing a name.

What the policy says

When children sign up for Roblox, we also collect certain types of personal information called persistent identifiers for internal operations and to provide you and other users with Services. Persistent identifiers are data like IP Address and unique device identifiers that are required for you to be able to connect your device to Roblox. Persistent identifiers can be used to recognize you, your device, or your household device. Roblox collects persistent identifiers and the information we ask you for when you sign up for the following internal operations:
