Apple launches easy-to-understand privacy labels for all apps

Apple, earlier in the year at World Wide Developers Conference (WWDC) 2020 in June announced to bring sweeping changes to improve user-privacy practices by application developers and also revealed plans to launch easy-to-understand labels for device owners to know how much and what type of user-information is being tracked by the apps.

On December 8, Apple began requiring developers to submit this new privacy information to the App Store in order to update their apps. This does not mean developers have to make any changes to their app or business model, but it is a simple task about providing users with transparency about what data, if any, apps collect, use to track, and link to the user.
