Hello  
I published my app two days ago  
I just found that my app has permissions that I’m not using “see attachment”  
App needs (memory + calendar) only  
+  
Play store is showing that there is (In-app purchase) which is also not implemented

The fact that a single app requires a lot of permissions of components that the app doesn’t need  
is very wierd. Nowadays the people is very afraid about sharing his private information… More in strange cases… I think that the plataform have to do something right now with this…

Please, share our opinion!

Thanks Dom, I have 2 options, the first one, make a privacy policy (if you have some advice or tip, I will apreciate) and publish the app right now with this big disadvantage or the second one, wait for the solution…  
Do you know how long it can take approximately?  
Really with those permisions i think that its crazy to publish the app… I have ready the social networks, everything ready to the release.😢

This isn’t really an _option_ at all - if you want to get a favourable listing in the Play Store you _must_ create a privacy policy. There are lots of services on the internet and several have been suggested in the community too:

> [@Learn how to create Privacy Policy for your apps](http://community.thunkable.com/t/learn-how-to-create-privacy-policy-for-your-apps/1392):
>
> In order to inform users about how you protect their privacy and avoid any violations from Google, you must have to submit Privacy Policy URLs for apps that handles personal or sensitive user data and require certain permissions like CAMERA, LOCATION, etc. User Data You must be transparent in how you handle user data (e.g., information provided by a user, collected about a user, and collected about a user’s use of the app or device), including by disclosing the collection, use, and sharing …

Think about it the other way around - if you were running an app store would you encourage your visitors to download apps that didn’t have privacy policies in place?

Who is this directed at?

Yes it will not show a window that asks the user to accept any permission  
But in app store it shows to many permissions in the permissions section  
PLUS  
It is showing that there is “In-app purchase” while it doesn’t contain any payment component
