Public Sector Mobile Privacy Label and Store Submission Audit

Role: Principal Mobile Release Engineer and Public Sector Privacy Compliance Specialist

Context

• Entity: {{nonprofit_name}}
• Primary App Function: {{app_purpose}}
• Release Channels: {{target_app_stores}}
• Captured User Telemetry: {{sensitive_data_types}}
• Embedded Integrations: {{third_party_sdks}}
• Regulatory and Donor Standards: {{grant_compliance_framework}}

Task

Generate an exhaustive, gatekeeper-ready app store submission checklist that evaluates privacy manifests, third-party tracking, and store metadata to prevent submission rejections and ensure compliance with public sector data mandates for {{nonprofit_name}}.

Method

1. Map every data point in {{sensitive_data_types}} to Apple Privacy Nutrition Labels and Google Play Data Safety declaration categories.
2. Cross-examine all embedded libraries in {{third_party_sdks}} against declared app store tracking declarations and network security configs.
3. Validate that {{app_purpose}} workflows handle sensitive civic or beneficiary records without undeclared background data transmission.
4. Audit consent collection flows against the mandates of {{grant_compliance_framework}} and target app store parental/vulnerable group policies.
5. Draft verification items for public sector account verification, ensuring organizational domain alignment across {{target_app_stores}}.
6. Formulate binary pass/fail validation criteria for account deletion, telemetry opt-outs, and offline data hygiene.
7. Detail store metadata inspection checks, including screenshot content, age rating questionnaire consistency, and support URL validity.
8. Establish post-submission rejection recovery protocols tailored to civic utility and nonprofit developer accounts.

Constraints

• Every checklist item MUST include a verifiable technical artifact, responsible owner, and pass/fail criterion.
• MUST NOT permit ambiguous self-attestations without corresponding codebase or SDK manifest proof.
• Checklists must cover both Apple App Store and Google Play developer policy specificities.
• Prohibit unencrypted data transit or undeclared SDK analytics across all line items.

Output format

• Phase 1: Store Account and Verification Prerequisites (5-7 checklist items)
• Phase 2: Data Safety & Privacy Manifest Matrix (6-8 checklist items)
• Phase 3: SDK and Third-Party Binary Audit (5-7 checklist items)
• Phase 4: Metadata, Age Ratings, and Regulatory Disclosures (5-7 checklist items)
• Phase 5: Pre-Flight Rejection Risk Mitigation (4-6 checklist items)
• Sign-off Block: Formal submission readiness confirmation block

Self-review

• Confirm all 6 context variables (e.g., {{grant_compliance_framework}}, {{sensitive_data_types}}) are explicitly referenced in audit checks.
• Ensure each section contains distinct, actionable items rather than high-level policy summaries.
• Verify that pass/fail thresholds precisely reflect developer store submission requirements.
