Educational App Compliance is similar to EdTech platform services but focuses on mobile apps (App Store, Google Play). App stores have strict requirements (e.g., Apple’s App Store Review Guidelines), especially in the "Kids Category." Legal non-compliance leads to rejection or removal. This service helps developers adapt their apps to both Georgian law and international marketplace regulations (COPPA, GDPR). Legal.ge offers lawyers who ensure successful app launch and legal safety.

What Does App Compliance Service Cover?

The service ensures smooth store listing. It includes:

  • Store Policy Check: Verifying compliance with Apple and Google policies (e.g., data collection, ads for kids).
  • EULA: Drafting End User License Agreements for mobile format.
  • COPPA Compliance: Adhering to US child privacy laws, mandatory for global markets.
  • In-App Purchases: Regulating payments and refund policies.
  • Data Minimization: Legal advice on collecting only necessary data.

Real-World Scenarios Where You Need This Service

For example, you made a kids' alphabet game. Apple rejected it because it requested location data, which is banned for kids' apps. A lawyer will fix the Privacy Policy and communicate with Apple. Another example: using third-party ads. You must verify they are Family Friendly Ads; otherwise, the app will be removed.

Georgian Legal Framework

Locally, the "Law on Personal Data Protection" applies. Internationally, COPPA (US) and GDPR-K (Europe) are crucial for global reach.

The Process Step-by-Step

1. Analysis: Defining functionality and audience. 2. Documentation: Drafting Privacy Policy and EULA. 3. Store Listing: Checking legal texts in the store. 4. Submission Support: Helping answer review questions.
