NSUserTrackingUsageDescription for AppTrackingTransparency

Hi there,

iOS >14 wants you to implement AppTrackingTransparency and so I did a few days ago.
I uploaded a new Version to the Appstore and it got declined, because of an insufficient NSUserTrackingUsageDescription.

The Documentation says:
'A message that informs the user why an app is requesting permission to use data for tracking the user or the device.'

My Message was something like this:
We would like to track some of the behavioral Data to improve your experience with our app and the app itself.
We won't pass your data on to somebody else.

Apparently, I have to list all of the tracked data e.g. page view, view time, and so on. That's ok for me.

But for Usability reasons, I wanted to keep this description as short as possible.

What I want to know is, if I have to create another full security policy or something like that. We're developing and distributing in germany, so we already have a good data security policy in our app (evaluated with our lawyer).
If thats the case, I will connect with our lawyer again.

The App Store Review couldn't answer my question and that's why I wanted to try it here. Hope you can help.

Best regards

It seems to depend solely on the mood of the reviewer. The guidelines are just that - guidelines not rules. However, Apple can one day accept the app and the next day reject it with the exact same NSUserTrackingUsageDescription.
