Recently, Apple announced a major adjustment, that is, all iOS applications must have a user privacy protection agreement, and prohibit mobile software from obtaining irrelevant permissions and data, in order to maximize the protection of user interests.
Previously, Facebook was exposed to collect a large amount of user personal data, and also used this data for commercial activities, which caused the user's anger, and Apple said that they firmly defend the user's personal privacy and do not collect user personal data.
In this announcement, Apple said that starting from October 3 this year, all new software and upgraded versions submitted to the Apple Software Store and TestFlight (Apple's mobile phone software testing service) must have a complete user privacy protection agreement.
Apple also stressed that protecting user privacy is a top priority for Apple's application ecosystem. Developers should be cautious in their personal data to ensure that they adhere to good privacy practices, and software developers are not allowed to modify user privacy protocols at will. The content can be adjusted only when the software version is upgraded.
For Apple, their profit is mainly based on hardware profits, not relying on online advertising to obtain income, and naturally not collecting user data submitted to advertisers.
