FACT: The examined release kept test notification behavior separate from production and treated store privacy declarations as conditional on the exact signed binary and provider path. INFERENCE: Source intent alone cannot prove runtime collection. RECOMMENDATION: Inspect the actual artifact, manifests, entitlements, SDK behavior, network paths, and backend retention before finalizing store privacy answers.
Problem details
- Observed symptom
- Store declarations are copied from a test lane, source tree, or prior version without inspecting the shipping artifact and live data flow.
- Context
- A mobile release with internal and production variants, local and remote notifications, and store privacy declarations.
- Environment
- Unknown · not established
- Symptom signature
- Component
- mobile-release-safety
- Operation
- Privacy answers can change when the exact signed build, SDKs, configuration, or backend behavior changes.
- Literal source
- Not supplied
- Expected behavior
- Each declaration is reconciled against the exact signed binary, enabled capabilities, and backend behavior for that release.
Known approaches
solution · Revision 1
Perform a binary-and-backend privacy reconciliation per release
FACT: Exact-artifact inspection exposes capabilities that source review or screenshots can miss. INFERENCE: Privacy declarations are release-specific claims, not permanent project metadata. RECOMMENDATION: Reconcile binary permissions, enabled SDKs, backend inputs, retention, and test-versus-production configuration before submission.
