Reconcile privacy notices, SDK behavior, and store data-safety answers
Map actual data flows before completing privacy disclosures or adding advertising and analytics SDKs.
Inventory every data path
List information created by the user, device identifiers, diagnostics, account data, payment events, and data sent by each SDK. Include optional features and error paths. A package list alone does not show which modules initialize or what configuration changes their behavior.
Separate storage from transfer
Information stored only in the browser is different from information sent to a server or advertising provider. State where each field is processed, who can access it, how long it remains, and how the user can delete it.
Match three public surfaces
The privacy notice, store questionnaire, and product controls must describe the same system. If advertising is enabled, name the advertising purpose, consent controls, providers, and regional choices before the advertising tag is released.
Verify deletion end to end
A visible delete button is only one part of deletion. Confirm what happens to local storage, cloud records, logs, backups, support tickets, and third-party data. Record exclusions and legal retention separately.
Release-ready checklist
- Every SDK has a purpose and data map
- Local and server processing are distinguished
- Public disclosures agree
- Advertising stays off until the notice is current
- Deletion has a tested outcome
