    Should we include a link for privacy policy within our game ? or only on the google play store page ?

    can anyone give more information about this ?

    It just optional. If you have privacy policy link, then paste the link in developer settings while submitting app.

    Great , because today i got an email from google play regarding this , and ask for Privacy policy in developer page and also within games , but i think it's not necessary to have it on the game only the page .

    I just came to know that every buildbox user is receiving this email. Now its must. You have to provide privacy policy by march 15th. But it simple. There are many free policy generators available online. or the easiest way is copy privacy policy of similar game/app :p

    And we must link this privacy policy on our own website?

    Add a privacy policy to your store listing
    1. Go to your Google Play Developer Console.
    2. Select an app.
    3. Select Store Listing.
    4. Under "Privacy Policy," enter the URL where you have the privacy policy hosted online.
    5. Select Save draft (new apps) or Submit update (existing apps).

    Hi,
    Here is some assistance for making Privacy Policy for your games
    http://appsmoment.net/google/ Just add App Name and click Generate.
    Best solution is to make Privacy Policy on your website, even free Wordpress and you will not have any Email sending your from Google regarding your game.

    Why would you want a privacy policy that says your game access facebook, mails and what not? I mean this generator contains probably everything that is possible to access on a phone but for a buildbox game this totally doesn't apply... :confused:

    @Christoph
    You need to make Privacy Policy according to your game, if accessing certain feature of your device you need to inform players regarding that.
    If you adding additional 3-rd parties SDK you need to inform players.
