States that my information may be shared with 3rd party companies and such so I declined and I'm unable to enter the test server. Why would you need to share my information to a 3rd party?


**When running on test servers, the EVE Online client gathers data that is used to help us improve the quality and performance of the client.

**This data may include personally identifiable information and be transmitted to, processed and/or stored on 3rd party servers as well as on CCP's network.

Do you agree to send us your data? If you do not agree, the client will terminate.

never heard of CYA? and that doesn't say they are sending your info to a third party but that they may store it on third party servers

It is common to outsource QA efforts (in particular when you cater to a very wide array of hardware, which would be too expensive for a non QA dedicated company to keep in-house).

What the prompt most likely refers to is that in the event that your client encounters an error, some information about your computer and connection may be sent to CCP and then forwarded to a third party for review. It doesn't mean you'll start to receive spam emails or that the client is checking what other processes are up to.
