Google to add App Store privacy labels to its iOS apps

#Tech #Google #iosapps
Google is not delaying updates to its iOS apps because it doesn’t want to comply with Apple’s recently announced App Store Privacy Labels policy. The new policy, a part of the company’s larger privacy push, requires developers to disclose how data is collected from App Store users and used to track them. TechCrunch confirmed Google is not taking a stand against the labels. It is, in fact, preparing to roll out privacy labels across its sizable iOS app catalog as soon as this week or the next.
While it may seem Google is skirting Apple’s new rules, we must also be careful about reading too much into the update timing. A slowdown in December app updates isn’t unusual by any stretch. Nor is it suspicious to see app changes pushed out to the public in the weeks before Christmas and New Year’s because the Apple’s App Store itself shuts down over the holidays. This year Google goes on a code freeze in late December through early January, so as not to cause major issues with its products and services over the holidays when staff is out.
Apple may or may not have given Google some leeway on the matter in terms of Google’s apps being updated after the deadline without submitting the privacy label information.
