A privacy policy is a critical legal document that's mandatory for app store approval and legal compliance worldwide. This document transparently explains how your mobile app collects, uses, stores, and protects user data. Both Apple App Store (iOS) and Google Play Store (Android) strictly require privacy policies for app submission, and violations can result in app rejection or removal. Beyond compliance, privacy policies build user trust, reduce legal liability, and ensure compliance with international privacy laws including GDPR (Europe), CCPA (California), and other regional data protection regulations. Apps without proper privacy policies face legal risks, user distrust, and guaranteed app store rejection.
