# Apple App Store Privacy Details

Google is committed to helping our customers create great iOS apps for
end users.

As of iOS 14, Apple has been publishing their app privacy requirements on the [App Privacy Details](https://developer.apple.com/app-store/app-privacy-details/) page and in their [privacy manifest documentation](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/bundleresources/privacy_manifest_files).

> [!NOTE]
> **Note:**Google Maps Platform SDKs' privacy manifests disclose data that is always collected and collected by default. It is your responsibility to ensure your privacy nutrition labels are accurate based on your app's actual usage of SDKs.

Apple has now released more details on the questionnaire. We will be sharing information on whether and how
Google Maps Platform APIs and SDKs handle end users' data, including any
applicable settings or configurations you can control as the app developer.

Google Maps Platform SDKs for iOS are considered third-party SDKs in iOS apps. Privacy manifests help developers describe reasons for accessing privacy-related data, including third-party SDK use of such data.

We aim to be as transparent as possible in supporting you; however, as the app developer, you are solely responsible for deciding how to meet Apple's privacy requirements and whether to show end users any
permissions or prompts described by Apple.

The resources we provide are based on the latest information Apple is providing to third-party SDK owners, and we will update the What's New section as new information emerges.
