The privacy policy for Genshin Impact indicates several areas of concern. Your data may be collected from a wide array of third-party sources (data_use-1), and user-generated content, including chat data, may be used to train AI models (data_use-2). The company also reserves the right to combine your data with information from third-party contractors for profiling and market analysis (data_use-3), and to share your personal data with governmental authorities (data_use-4). The service may also infer your preferences and interests from collected information (data_use-5). Both in-game displayed data and messages, as well as public information on community forums, can be viewed by other users, including those without accounts (data_use-6, data_use-7). Finally, content you share on community forums can be downloaded, screenshotted, or forwarded outside the services and shared on other social networks (risk_flags-1).
