Android’s app store privacy section starts rolling out today
Google is rolling out an app privacy section to the Play Store. When you look up an app on the Play Store, alongside sections like “About this app” and “ratings and reviews,” there will be a new section called “Data privacy & security,” where developers can explain what data they collect.
While the section will be appearing for users starting today, it might not be filled out by developers. Google’s deadline for developers to provide privacy information is July 20. Even then, all of this privacy information is provided by the developer and is essentially working on the honor system.
