Battlegrounds Mobile India: ‘Data shared with third-parties only to enable certain features’, says Krafton

Battlegrounds Mobile India recently came under crosshairs again for Indian players’ data being smuggled overseas. Now Krafton has stated that the “data shared to third parties are only to enable certain game features”.

“Krafton will continue to closely monitor and protect any data being transferred to unexpected and restricted IP addresses prior to the official launch,” the company added in its statement.

“Krafton is implementing the industry’s toughest standards for data security and is working to overcome any shortcomings throughout the Early Access testing period, for the official launch of Battlegrounds Mobile India. In the meantime, Krafton is fully aware of the recent concerns over data handling in regards to Battlegrounds Mobile India Early Access test,” the company said.
