To ensure transparency and help users understand your app's privacy and data handling practices, it is important to complete the Data Safety section. This questionnaire collects information about the user data collected or shared by your app, which will be displayed on your Store Listing. To help you navigate the process seamlessly, we have prepared all the necessary information for completing the Data Safety section.
Starting from August 22, 2022, all new apps and app updates require a completed Data Safety form. It is essential to note that publishing a new app or updating an existing one will not be possible if the Data Safety form is incomplete or contains unaddressed issues.
To complete the Data Safety section, please follow these steps:
- Access the Self-publish page in your AppsGeyser dashboard. There, you will find the Data Safety file specifically tailored to your app. Download this file.
- Navigate to the Data Safety section of the Developer Console.
- Locate the "Import from CSV" option at the top right of the page. Upload the Data Safety file obtained in the previous step.
- Carefully review the form, ensuring that the uploaded information accurately represents your app's data handling practices. Confirm the provided information by clicking "Save" to store the data.
