How could we complete this questionnaire for SAB apps?
Earlier this year, Google announced new policy requirements for the upcoming Data safety section in Google Play. In the questionnaire, you are asked to provide information about the user data collected or shared by your app. The information provided will be also shown on your store listing to help users better understand your app’s privacy, security, and data handling practices before they download it.
Timeline
February 2022: Users will see the Data safety section in Play store
If your information is not approved, your section will say “No information available.”
April 2022: Deadline to have your privacy policy and Data Safety form approved.
Without an approved section, your new app submission or app update may be rejected. There may also be additional enforcement actions in the future.
FCBH Digest Analytics doesn’t collect location information from the app. I have suggested to FCBH that it would be good to have a statement to help App Builders know how to report data safety if using FCBH Digest Analytics.
As for Amplitude, I cannot find any statement about Google Play Data safety.
I’d imagine that the next two pages would be pretty simple if we answer ‘No’ to all three of the questions on this first page, but I honestly don’t know what these apps are collecting. (I do have some apps with FCBH Analytics and some without.)
Thanks for any guidance you can give for this,
Matt A
Thanks @Matt_A - I think Firebase and other analytics collects data which are represented under “App activity” and “App info and performance” in the above screenshots, but I think Firebase hasn’t published any info about the data disclosure yet.
