[Idea] Add a page with instructions on how to delete an account

[murfel]

Hi! Google Play now requires a link to a page with instructions on how a user can request deletion of data.

The page could be just something like [dev name] - [app name]: please contact [email] to delete your data, but the value is to have it already published in Flycricket automagically and ready to be used when filling out Google Play's questionaire.

Thank you!

It is a good idea and thank you for suggesting it.

However it is out of the scope of what the web app does.

For your usecase, I have a suggestion though.

1. Create a markdown file and store it in a repo.
2. Use Github Pages to publish the repo and you have your page available publicly at username.github.io/reponame.
3. This is all free and something you can control.

Hope it solves your requirement.

I'm just saying how your app addresses a pain-point, and how it would solve that pain-point even better.

Before, it would be enough to just run your app, and it generates all what you need to publish an Android app.

Now, a user would also need to do something manually. Would be cool if they didn't have to.

I'm grateful for what's available already, just sharing a user perspective.

Would it make sense if the privacy policy itself contained that section:

## Data Deletion
[dev name] - [app name]: please contact [email] to delete your data

(Maybe also a free form text area to also add some text that the user might want to add)

and then with that, when the page is published as it is right now, the same link to privacy policy could be used in that field in Google Console?

If you have an app that you could test this would, that would also help.

This small info being added to the page is quite easy to do and might become a simple option to choose in the web app.

What I would like to avoid is having to do a separate page deployment for just holding that small info.

This might be an option, although I won't be able to test it any time soon if this will pass the review process with Google, sorry!

I'm not sure what are the drawbacks of having a separate page. For me as a user, that would be more reassuring to have it separately, so that reviewers will definitely find it on the page and greenlight my app. No humans read this, it's only a formality, so as a user, I just want to get it over with as little pain as possible :) Thanks for your little app!

I'll consider what are the options. Thank you for bringing this up. I'll try to find a creative way to get this available.

I'll keep the issue open for reference.
