Filling your app App Privacy page
Apple requires that app owners fill an app privacy page used to inform their users about what data is collected in their app.
This page needs to be filled only once, unless an update of your app adds a new type of collected data.
Go to App Store Connect and login with the Account Holder role user, or any Admin role user.
Once connected click on My apps and select your app from the list.
In the left menu, under the General section click on App Privacy.
Click on the blue Start button (if its the first time that you fill your App Privacy page) or Edit next to Data types if you're doing an update.
You will be asked if your app collects data or not, choose Yes.
You now have the choice to tick several data types, depending on what you app collects.
Collected data types

When you configure a block for a data type you will be asked to answer 3 questions:
