App Store Connect — App Privacy Questionnaire

Use these answers in App Store Connect → App Privacy. They must match PrivacyInfo.xcprivacy and the live app behavior.

Do not select “Data Not Collected.” The app collects user-entered text for AI features and shares it with OpenAI when live generation runs.

Summary

Question Answer
Do you or your third-party partners collect data from this app? Yes
Is data used to track users? No
Is data linked to the user’s identity? No

Data type: Other User Content

Covers text the user enters in Post Generator, Title Optimizer, and Comment Writer (topics, titles, drafts, subreddit names, post URLs, parent comments, tone preferences, NSFW/spoiler tags) and AI responses saved locally in AI History.

For each purpose, answer:

Field Value
Data type Other User Content
Collected Yes
Linked to identity No
Used for tracking No
Purpose App Functionality

Third-party sharing (critical)

When App Store Connect asks whether this data is shared with third parties:

Third party Shared? Why
OpenAI (api.openai.com) Yes Live AI generation sends the user’s prompt text to OpenAI’s API. Applies to premium users and free-trial generations (up to 3 total).
Apple (StoreKit) No for this data type Subscription checks do not send AI inputs to Apple.
Reddit No for this data type Embedded Reddit browsing is direct user ↔ Reddit interaction; the app does not extract or transmit Reddit browsing data to its own servers.

For OpenAI sharing details:

  • Shared for App Functionality — generating post titles, bodies, optimized titles, and comments.
  • Not used for tracking or advertising.
  • Not linked to user identity — prompts are not accompanied by name, email, Apple ID, or a persistent user identifier.

What is NOT collected by the app

Declare only what applies. Do not add these unless behavior changes:

  • Contact Info, Identifiers, Location, Browsing History, Purchases, Diagnostics, Usage Data, Sensitive Info
  • No third-party analytics SDKs (Amplitude, Firebase, etc.)
  • No advertising networks

After uploading a build

  1. Open App Privacy in App Store Connect.
  2. Confirm the privacy manifest from the build populated Other User Content.
  3. If answers were previously set to “Data Not Collected,” reset and re-answer using this guide.
  4. Under Other User Content → App Functionality, enable third-party sharing and list processing by OpenAI.
  5. Save and verify the App Privacy label preview shows Data Not Linked to You → Other User Content.
