What is GDPR?
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is a comprehensive privacy law that provides individuals residing in the European Union (EU) and European Economic Area (EAA) greater control over their “personal data” and requires organizations to maintain appropriate security of personal data. GDPR is an important step forward for clarifying and enabling individual privacy rights.

I've requested my data be deleted; now what?
After you request deletion of your Minecraft: Java Edition Profile, you will be given a 30-day grace period & then your Minecraft account will be deleted. After this 30-day grace period, your Minecraft account and your ability to access any games you currently own will be gone forever, as will your ownership of these games. Any Realms subscription will also be canceled, and any Minecraft Dungeons, Minecraft: Java Edition and Minecraft: Bedrock Edition game data associated with your account will be deleted. If you wish to play again, you’ll have to create a new account by logging in to Minecraft with your Microsoft Account and purchase any game or games you wish to play again.
