[2021] What does Apex need my webcam for?

Thank you for the post, this of course shouldn't be happening.

Can I check on what specifically activates? Does it launch anything or does it "just" turn on the camera light? Is anything recorded/saved? Do you have any macros or anything to automatically turn on the camera under other circumstances.

Also can I check your camera model?

Thank you. Also, can I check if you use a connected controller, Xbox or otherwise? It looks like the device has some sort of integration with controllers. 

Another thing I wonder, is if the game is trying to use it as a microphone. If you open the Sound settings in Windows does it show as an input device? If so, can you try setting a different input device and see if anything changes?
