New Voice Reporting

- Mechanism of Voice Reporting: The feature captures the last five minutes of voice chat on a rolling basis. The captured audio is stored on the player’s device and is only reportable within this five-minute window. Older audio is automatically deleted.
- Privacy and Security Measures: Captured voice chat audio is securely stored on the player’s device, not on Epic Games servers. Submitted audio clips are sent to Epic moderators for review and are automatically deleted after 14 days or after a sanction period, whichever is longer.
- Settings for Different Age Groups: Players under 18 always have voice reporting enabled. They can mute themselves or turn off voice chat to avoid being recorded. Players aged 18 and over can customize their voice reporting settings.
- Enabling and Disabling Voice Reporting: The feature is always on for game channels and for party channels that include players with the setting enabled or underage players. Players over 18 have the option to turn off voice reporting in certain situations.
