The news comes from 9to5Google. According to reports, Google continues to work hard to improve its app store, making it more convenient and secure. One of the next steps in the development of the site will be tightening the rules for storing personal data of users. According to the new privacy policy, from May 31 next year, Android application developers will need to provide users with the ability to delete not only your accounts, but also the personal data associated with them. The company noted that this option should be available both inside and outside the app.
The latter means that the user can request the deletion of the account and personal data without reinstalling the program.

In order to prevent fraud or comply with regulatory requirements, program authors will be required to clearly inform users of their data retention practices. Softmakers must provide information relevant to Google itself by 7 December of this year.
The personal data that companies hold may include information such as the name, the address, the number di phone, email address, the date di birth, credit card number, the social security number, work and education information, shopping preferences and online activities.
