App Privacy in App Store Connect is a critical component that ensures users are informed about how their data is handled and protected. Understanding the Data Types section helps you accurately disclose your app’s data practices, which is essential for compliance with Apple’s privacy standards and for building trust with your users.
This guide is designed to walk you through the process of configuring the Data Types under App Privacy.
Navigate to the App Privacy Section
- Log in to App Store Connect.
- Navigate to App Privacy > Data Types.
- You will see the prompt:
“Do you or your third-party partners collect data from this app?”
Answer the Data Collection Question
- Review the available options:
- Yes, we collect data from this app
- No, we do not collect data from this app
- Yes, we collect data from this app
- Select No, we do not collect data from this app if your app does not directly collect any data.
Key Considerations
- We do not collect any data from the app.
- The data displayed in the app is pulled directly from your website, meaning you own all the data.
- This data is identical to what is gathered during WordPress/BuddyBoss registration and is stored on your hosting/server.
