Fill in the store privacy forms from an SDK list

Answer Apple's App Privacy questions and Google Play's Data safety form from a list of every SDK in the build. Update both forms in the same release that changes what is collected.

How to do it

Both stores count data that SDKs collect, such as analytics, ads and crash tools, as yours. Google Play wants the form even from apps that collect nothing, plus a privacy policy link. Keep a list of SDKs with what each one collects and why, next to your map every store that holds personal data. Generate the SDK list from the lock files in CI, and fail the build when an SDK appears that the list lacks. Apple lets you change answers at any time without a new build. Google Play may block updates or remove an app whose form is wrong.

How to check

Every SDK in the release lock files is on the list. The App Privacy answers and the Data safety form match the list's data types, checked at each release that adds or removes an SDK.
