5. Legal

Apps must comply with all legal requirements in any location where you make them available (if you’re not sure, check with a lawyer). We know this stuff is complicated, but it is your responsibility to understand and make sure your app conforms with all local laws, not just the guidelines below. And of course, apps that solicit, promote, or encourage criminal or clearly reckless behavior will be rejected.

• 5.1 Privacy

  Protecting user privacy is paramount in the Apple ecosystem, and you should use care when handling personal data to ensure you’ve complied with applicable laws and the terms of the Apple Developer Program License Agreement, not to mention customer expectations. More particularly:

  • 5.1.1 Data Collection and Storage
    • (i) Apps that collect user or usage data must have a privacy policy and secure user consent for the collection. This includes—but isn’t limited to—apps that implement HealthKit or other health/medical technologies, HomeKit, Keyboard extensions, Apple Pay, Stickers and iMessage extensions, include a login, or access user data from the device (e.g. location, contacts, calendar, etc.).
    • (ii) If your app doesn’t include significant account-based features, let people use it without a log-in. Apps may not require users to enter personal information to function, except when directly relevant to the core functionality of the app or required by law. If your core app functionality is not related to a specific social network (e.g. Facebook, WeChat, Weibo, Twitter, etc.), you must provide access without a login or via another mechanism. Pulling basic profile information, sharing to the social network, or inviting friends to use the app are not considered core app functionality.
    • (iii) Developers that use their apps to surreptitiously discover passwords or other private data will be removed from the Developer Program.
    • (iv)SafariViewContoller must be used to visibly present information to users; the controller may not be hidden or obscured by other views or layers. Additionally, an app may not use SafariViewController to track users without their knowledge and consent.
  • 5.1.2 Data Use and Sharing
    • (i) Apps cannot use or transmit someone’s personal data without first obtaining their permission and providing access to information about how and where the data will be used.
    • (ii) Data collected from apps may not be used or shared with third parties for purposes unrelated to improving the user experience or software/hardware performance connected to the app’s functionality, or to serve advertising in compliance with the Apple Developer Program License Agreement.
    • (iii) Data gathered from the HomeKit API may not be used for advertising or other use-based data mining.
    • (iv) Apps using Apple Pay may only share user data acquired via Apple Pay with third parties to facilitate or improve delivery of goods and services.
  • 5.1.3 Health and Health Research

    Health, fitness, and medical data are especially sensitive and apps in this space have some additional rules to make sure customer privacy is protected:

    • (i) Apps may not use or disclose to third parties data gathered in the health, fitness, and medical research context—including from the HealthKit API, Motion and Fitness, or health-related human subject research—for advertising or other use-based data mining purposes other than improving health management, or for the purpose of health research, and then only with permission.
    • (ii) Apps must not write false or inaccurate data into HealthKit or any other medical research or health management apps, and may not store personal health information in iCloud.
    • (iii) Apps conducting health-related human subject research must obtain consent from participants or, in the case of minors, their parent or guardian. Such consent must include the (a) nature, purpose, and duration of the research; (b) procedures, risks, and benefits to the participant; (c) information about confidentiality and handling of data (including any sharing with third parties); (d) a point of contact for participant questions; and (e) the withdrawal process.
    • (iv) Apps conducting health-related human subject research must secure approval from an independent ethics review board. Proof of such approval must be provided upon request.
  • 5.1.4 Kids

    For many reasons, it is critical to use care when dealing with personal data from kids, and we encourage you to carefully review all the requirements for complying with laws like the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”) and any international equivalents.

    Apps may ask for birthdate and parental contact information only for the purpose of complying with these statutes, but must include some useful functionality or entertainment value regardless of a person’s age.

    Moreover, apps in the Kids Category or those that collect, transmit, or have the capability to share personal information (e.g. name, address, email, location, photos, videos, drawings, the ability to chat, other personal data, or persistent identifiers used in combination with any of the above) from a minor must include a privacy policy and must comply with all applicable children's privacy statutes. For the sake of clarity, the parental gate requirement for the Kid’s Category is generally not the same as securing parental consent to collect personal data under these privacy statutes.

  • 5.1.5 Location Services

    Use Location services in your app only when it is directly relevant to the features and services provided by the app. Location-based APIs shouldn’t be used to provide emergency services or autonomous control over vehicles, aircraft, and other devices, except for small devices such as lightweight drones and toys, or remote control car alarm systems, etc. Ensure that you notify and obtain consent before collecting, transmitting, or using location data. If your app uses background location services, be sure to explain the purpose in your app; refer to the Human Interface Guidelines for best practices on doing so.

• 5.2 Intellectual Property

  Make sure your app only includes content that you created or that you have a license to use. Your app may be removed if you’ve stepped over the line and used content without permission. Of course, this also means someone else’s app may be removed if they’ve “borrowed” from your work. If you believe your intellectual property has been infringed by another developer on the App Store, submit a claim via our web form. Laws differ in different countries, but at the very least, make sure to avoid the following common errors:

  • 5.2.1 Generally: Don’t use protected third party material such as trademarks, copyrighted works, or patented ideas in your app without permission, and don’t include misleading, false, or copycat representations, names, or metadata in your app bundle.
  • 5.2.2 Third Party Sites/Services: If your app uses, accesses, monetizes access to, or displays content from a third party service, ensure that you are specifically permitted to do so under the service’s terms of use. Authorization must be provided upon request.
  • 5.2.3 Audio/Video Downloading: Apps should not facilitate illegal file sharing or include the ability to save, convert, or download media from third party sources (e.g. Apple Music, YouTube, SoundCloud, Vimeo, etc.) without explicit authorization from those sources. Streaming of audio/video content may also violate Terms of Use, so be sure to check before your app accesses those services. Documentation must be provided upon request.
  • 5.2.4 Apple Endorsements: Don’t suggest or infer that Apple is a source or supplier of the App, or that Apple endorses any particular representation regarding quality or functionality. If your app is selected as an “Editor’s Choice,” Apple will apply the badge automatically.
  • 5.2.5 Apple Products: Don’t create an app that appears confusingly similar to an existing Apple product, interface (e.g. Finder), app (such as the App Store, iTunes Store, or Messages) or advertising theme, and don’t misspell Apple product names (i.e., GPS for Iphone, iTunz). iTunes music previews may not be used for their entertainment value (e.g. as the background music to a photo collage or the soundtrack to a game) or in any other unauthorized manner. If your app displays Activity rings, do not modify the look and feel of the rings themselves or the data they represent. The Human Interface Guidelines have more information on how to use Activity rings.
• 5.3 Gaming, Gambling, and Lotteries

  Gambling, gaming, and lotteries can be tricky to manage and tend to be one of the most regulated offerings on the App Store. Only include this functionality if you’ve fully vetted your legal obligations everywhere you make your app available and are prepared for extra time during the review process. Some things to keep in mind:

  • 5.3.1 Sweepstakes and contests must be sponsored by the developer of the app.
  • 5.3.2 Official rules for sweepstakes, contests, and raffles must be presented in the app and make clear that Apple is not a sponsor or involved in the activity in any manner.
  • 5.3.3 Apps may not use IAP to purchase credit or currency for use in conjunction with real money gaming of any kind, and may not enable people to purchase lottery or raffle tickets or initiate fund transfers in the app.
  • 5.3.4 Apps that offer real money gaming (e.g. sports betting, poker, casino games, horse racing) or lotteries must have necessary licensing and permissions in the locations where the App is used, must be geo-restricted to those locations, and must be free on the App Store. Illegal gambling aids, including card counters, are not permitted on the App Store. Lottery apps must have consideration, chance, and a prize.

5.1.4孩子

原因是多方面的，它是使用护理时，应对孩子的个人数据的关键，我们鼓励你仔细审查所有遵守法律像儿童在线隐私权保护法案的要求（“杯”）和国际等效。

应用程序可能要求出生日期和父母的联系信息仅为遵守这些法规的目的，但必须包括一些有用的功能或娱乐价值，无论一个人的年龄。

此外，在儿童类或那些收集、传输的应用程序，或有能力分享个人信息（如姓名、地址、电子邮件、照片、视频、位置、图纸、聊天、能力等个人数据，或持续的标识符用于上述任何组合）从一个小小的必须包括隐私政策，必须遵守所有适用的儿童隐私法规。为了清楚起见，孩子的类别的父母门的要求一般是不一样的，以确保父母同意收集个人资料根据这些隐私法规。

5.1.5定位服务

只有在与应用程序提供的功能和服务直接相关时，才能在应用程序中使用位置服务。基于位置的API不应该用来提供急救服务或在车辆自主控制飞机，和其他设备，除了小设备如轻型无人机和玩具，或远程控制汽车防盗系统，确保你通知等并获得同意之前，收集，传输，或使用位置数据。如果您的应用程序使用后台位置服务，请务必解释您的应用程序的目的，请参阅人类界面指南的最佳做法，这样做。

5.2知识产权

确保您的应用程序只包含您创建的内容或您有使用许可证。您的应用程序可能会被删除，如果你走过了线和使用内容未经许可。当然，这也意味着别人的应用程序可能会被删除，如果他们“借来”从你的工作。如果你认为你的知识产权受到了另一个开发者的应用程序商店，通过我们的Web表单提交索赔。不同的国家有不同的法律，但至少，确保避免下列常见的错误：

5.2.1一般：不要使用受保护的第三方材料，如商标、版权作品，或专利的想法在你的应用程序没有权限，而不包括误导、虚假，或模仿的表现，名称，或在你的应用程序包的元数据。

5.2.4苹果代言：不要暗示或推断，苹果是一个源或供应商的应用程序，或者苹果认可任何特定的表示对于质量或功能。如果您的应用程序被选为“编辑器的选择”，苹果将自动应用徽章。

5.2.5苹果产品：不创建一个应用程序，出现一个现有的苹果产品极其相似，界面（例如Finder），应用程序（如App Store、iTunes商店，或信息）或广告主题，不要拼错的苹果产品名称（例如，GPS的iPhone，itunz）。iTunes音乐预览不得用于他们的娱乐价值（例如背景音乐照片拼贴或配乐游戏）或未经授权的任何其他方式。如果你的应用程序显示活动环，不要修改的外观和感觉的戒指本身或他们所代表的数据。人类界面指南有更多关于如何使用活动环的信息。

5.3游戏、赌博和彩票

赌博、游戏和彩票是很难管理的，往往是最规范的产品在App Store。只包括这个功能，如果你充分审查你的法律义务，无论你使你的应用程序并准备额外的时间在审查过程中。有些事情要牢记在心：

5.3.1抽奖和竞赛必须由应用程序开发者赞助。

5.3.2官方抽奖，竞赛规则，和莱佛士必须在应用程序和明确，苹果是不以任何方式发起或参与活动。

5.3.3应用程序可能无法使用IAP购买信用或货币用于与任何真钱游戏的结合，不可能使人们购买彩票或奖券
