Then perhaps it's because Google should follow their own rules? I mean, I still think it's dumb to have a privacy policy on a calculator, but if that's what they ask from other devs maybe they do this to look good?
Otherwise, getting tracked by a calculator is really a low ๐
Yeah I really hope this is just them following the rules and instead of putting in the work hours for their lawyers to make a privacy policy for their calculator they just have a standard one they use and not them using the calculator to gather data. But it is Google so I wouldn't be surprised.
