So the Google Play data safety form needs to be filled out for my app, and I’m unsure how to fill it out. My game was built years ago with Unity 2018, and I’d love to be able to just say it doesn’t collect data, because I don’t use ads, IAPs, or analytics, but unfortunately it seems like Unity may have shoehorned in some automatic analytic stuff regardless. A few questions:
First off, my app may have been built with the Disable HW Statistic option turned on, but I’m not entirely sure. Is there any way I can check the build to see if this is the case? And if this is the case, does this mean the app doesn’t collect any data, and I can state that on the data safety form, or does it still collect data?
Assuming the app isn’t set to Disable HW Statistics, what do I need to put on the form? Is there a guide anywhere? I was looking at this but some of these categories seemed completely unnecessary for basic Unity usage stats, such as purchase history (I’m not using ads or IAPs, there’s no reason the purchase history of my users needs to be sent back to Unity), so I’m not sure if I’m just misinterpreting the list or if Unity just grabs way more info than they need.
The Data Safety info you submit is placed pretty prominently on the app store so I’d love to just be able to say the game doesn’t collect any data, because it effectively shouldn’t (I don’t get any and I don’t want any), but if my Unity build is sending data back to Unity then I guess I have no choice.
