Hi, google sent me a warning because my app "currently violates" the policy. My app now doesn't collect data of any type, but when I upload the new apk there are still 3 permission that I don't know how to remove.
android.permission.INTERNET
android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE
android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE
Where are located them and how can I remove them from my app?
I'm sure that my app can run also without them, or not?
Do you have a link to your privacy policy on the apps store listing page? On the Dev Console, go to the app being called out and the Store Listing tab. At the very bottom, there is a place to put a link to the privacy policy for that app. My unconfirmed guess is that Google is going through their database and matching possible privacy intrusive permission requirements with missing privacy policy links. Another guess is that they don't care what the policy says as long as the user can see it. It could be how they cover themselves.
