FanDuel's Services use precise location, such as GPS location, to locate you so that FanDuel may verify your location and process payments.
Why this matters
FanDuel's checks on where you are can rely on your precise location, not only a rough area.
What the policy says
Our Services use precise location-based services (e.g., location collected through GPS technology) in order to locate you so we may verify your location, process payments, perform analytics, deliver you relevant content and ads based on your location, share your location with our vendors as part of the location-based services we offer, and for purposes of legal and regulatory compliance. We also collect non-precise geolocation data (i.e., the city and state in which your device is located based on its IP address).

What you can do
No setting found that directly changes this practice.
In the FanDuel documents we searched for this finding, we did not verify a setting that changes this specific practice.
A broader option is available
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may ask FanDuel to delete certain personal information or to restrict or object to certain uses, or withdraw consent, through its privacy request form or phone line; certain information may be exempt.
That is a wider action rather than a privacy setting for this practice — it changes more than this, and it is not the same as turning this off.
