I have built a project with Ionic & I cannot upload my APK to the Google Play store. I get the following error:
Your APK is using permissions that require a privacy policy: (android.permission.GET_ACCOUNTS)
I can see this permission in my AndroidManifest.xml file as shown below. I am using Firebase with their database API, AngularFire2. Do I need to create a Privacy Policy for this? Is this easy to do?:
