    They collect and use quite a bit more than that, it’s in their privacy policy:

    Sure, their primary focus is most likely generating interest and usage of their platform, but they’ll also use analytical and statistical information to influence their business decisions.

    If that’s something you don’t care about, then more power to you - enjoy your free game.

    On a personal note, I made the decision as a consumer to not interact with them as much as possible. Even when I did have an account to collect free games years ago, the only thing I actually played was a Satisfactory alpha/beta event. I have more than enough games to play, so I am not concerned with collecting their free games.
