Android and iOS Specific Requirements
While the GDPR is a regulation specific to the European Union, it sets a high standard for data privacy that is increasingly being followed by other countries, including those where Google and Apple operate. This Policy addresses the core principles of the GDPR and can be adapted to comply with the specific requirements of Google Play and Apple App Store for mobile applications (if Dev Bhoomi Dastak develops one).
Here’s how this Policy can be adapted for Mobile Apps:
- In-App Notice: Include a clear and concise notice within the App explaining how user information is collected and used. This notice should provide users with the ability to opt out of data collection (where applicable) and direct them to this full Privacy Policy.
- Permissions: Clearly disclose the permissions requested by the App and how they are used. This should be done both within the App Store/Play Store listing and within the App itself.
- Data Minimization: Collect only the information necessary for the App’s functionality.
