I have no idea when I last logged into my Ubisoft account.

Direct from the horse’s mouth: https://www.ubisoft.com/en-us/help/account/article/closure-of-inactive-ubisoft-accounts/000079595

Edit: The Ubisoft page linked here has almost completely changed in the last day.

I mean do they email you with a heads up with decent lead time to log in and reset the clock?

30 days of notice. You have to be inactive for at least 4 years, as well.

This is… not great, but honestly I don’t care as much as I did initially. Maybe give more warning, though.

Yeah this is reasonable but it would be nice if they gave 90 days a few warnings for edge cases. Honestly 4 years is really generous I can see them knocking that part down if they raised the notice time.

Does it matter? Storing use data is incredibly cheap in the grand scheme of things.

Especially the very small amount of data that should be required to list the games an account owns.

Exactly. Don’t make a store/launcher, if you don’t want to deal with the data in the first place.
