Google unpublished a couple of my apps the other day for having out of date privacy policies. Fair, those URLs went dead. However, upon updating the URLs, one app was still not accepted.

Wall Ball. That’s because it doesn’t collect data on you. And what I mean by that is that when my privacy policy looked like this, Google rejected the app.

But, it’s true. Wall Ball doesn’t actually contain any ads or collect any data about anyone or anything. It simply runs as a small free game.

However, I’ve updated the privacy policy URL to:

https://gmr.dev/privacy/wallball2.html

Which basically just says I have ads in the game even though I don’t…

Whereas the link on the main privacy policy page goes to the “real” one:

https://gmr.dev/privacy/wallball.html

So we’ll see if Google accepts it this time. 😊

But hey, maybe it’s just their idea of an April Fools joke. 😛

*EDIT* GUESS WHOSE APP IS BACK ON THE STORE! 😀
