The title contains symbols or QR code blocks that redirects the user to an external website to find and view the Terms of Service, but does not provide a clear indication that the QR code or symbol is meant for this purpose. | Moderate (6) | Xbox One, Xbox Series, Windows |
The title does not notify the user of the Terms of Service prior to the account linking process. See FMA Notes. | Critical (12) | Xbox One, Xbox Series, Windows |
The title does not allow the user to unlink a publisher account anywhere. Examples: via the title, via the web, via a third-party experience. If via the web, a relevant website must be indicated but this does not need to be a direct link to the unlinking process, nor do we need to find the unlinking process guidance on the website. | Critical (12) | Xbox One, Xbox Series, Windows |
The title does not recognize that a publisher account has already been assigned to a Microsoft account when signing into another Xbox console. | Critical (12) | Xbox One, Xbox Series, Windows |

The title links publisher accounts to the Xbox One console rather than the Microsoft account. | Critical (12) | Xbox One, Xbox Series, Windows |
The title links publisher accounts to multiple Xbox profiles. | Critical (12) | Xbox One, Xbox Series, Windows |
The title associates the linking or unlinking of a publisher account across all Xbox profiles on a console. | Critical (12) | Xbox One, Xbox Series, Windows |
No current Scenario | Catastrophic (22) |
Notes
- Terms of Service can be provided in-title or via direction to an external resource such as a website where a user can find the information. An external link does not need to be direct to the ToS, nor under a specific game - the ToS simply needs to be available for the user to find.
- Suggested unlinking probability of 4. Linking probability will vary with titles - for some it will be mandatory for any functionality (some media apps), others optional.
