The number of applications, which can be downloaded from Play Store can impress. Many of them, however, can be a danger for us and for our privacy. Providing entertainment or information isn't the main reason for many developers to make apps - they only want to get our personal data. Google is trying to solve this problem, as evidenced by the emails that the suspected programmers received.

As write Google representatives in emails, applications in the Play Store will have to get special permissions on the basis of the submitted documents in which developers specify all the information that will be collected from the user during using application, and how these data will be protected. It is estimated that Google is keeping an eye on the approximately one million applications, and their developers must provide the privacy policy of the app. They have the time to do it to 15 March, if they won't do it - applications will be removed from the Play Store.
