Purple LithiumPrivacy & DataHard rejection

Missing privacy policy

The extension collects user data but provides no privacy policy URL.

Common reasons Google rejected this

  • 01Privacy Policy field on the listing is empty.
  • 02Privacy policy URL returns a 404 or doesn't load.
  • 03URL leads to a page that isn't actually a privacy policy.
  • 04Policy doesn't address data collection, usage, or sharing.

How to fix it

  • Publish a privacy policy at a public URL.
  • Paste the URL into the Privacy tab in the developer dashboard (NOT manifest.json).
  • The policy must mention: what data is collected, how it's used, with whom it's shared, and how to contact you.
