Control what others can see about you on your EA Account by managing your privacy settings.

Your EA Account Privacy Settings help you in many ways.

Different settings make it easier to find your friends and connect with others, while others let you play privately, combat harassment, and have your own personal gaming experience.

Update your privacy settings

Open your EA Account and Billing settings, then go to the Privacy Settings tab.

Update your email preferences

Head to your EA Account and Billing Settings, then select Email Preferences.

Make sure to click Update once you’ve made your changes to save them.

There are a number of different ways to set up your profile. Here’s what you can do to make your settings work for you.

Preferred Data Usage

EA In-Game Targeted Advertising

This setting controls what data will be used to show you advertising, reminders, and in-game offers we think may be of interest to you. If you disable it (unchecked in the Privacy Settings tab), you may still see ads from EA, but they won’t be based on information collected across EA games.

For mobile games, you'll need to opt out of in-game targeted advertising in each game's settings menu.

Each mobile game is different, but look for an option labeled Privacy or Privacy Settings. From there, you’ll find the setting for EA In-Game Targeted Advertising that you can disable.

EA Targeted Advertising on Third Party Websites and Platforms

This setting controls whether EA shares data from your EA Account with our third-party partners for EA targeted advertising on other websites and platforms.

Profile Privacy

Who can see my EA Account profile?

Decide who can see what you’re up to on EA platforms like the EA app. There are four options to choose from:

  • Everyone - Whether or not you’re friends with someone, they’ll be able to see your profile. Anyone can be recommended to you as a friend.
  • Friends - Your friends can view your profile.
  • Friends of friends - Your friends and their friends will be able to see what you have on your profile. These are players who may be recommended to you as a friend.
  • No one - You’ll be the only one able to see your achievements, game library, friends list, and wishlist. You also won’t get any friend recommendations.

What else can users see on my profile?

Want other players to see your achievements? Check this box. If not, leave it unchecked.

You can also choose whether you want your real name to appear on your profile. If not, leave it unchecked.

How can users search for me?

Check the boxes to choose how other players can search for your profile.

If you have an adult EA Account, one way other players can find you is through other accounts linked to your EA Account:

  • Xbox gamertag
  • PlayStation™ Network Online ID (PSN ID)
  • Nintendo Account
  • Steam Account Name

Other players will be able to find you if they search for the email address you use for your EA Account.

Blocked Users List

Having problems with another player? Block them. Blocking cuts off all communication between you and the other player when you’re playing on an EA platform, or if you’re playing an EA game on any other platform.

You can unblock players by removing them from your EA Blocked Users List at anytime.

If you want to block someone from contacting you completely, regardless of what platform you’re on or what game you’re playing, check out these helpful articles:
