Google Play Developer Program Policy Update

Hello Google Play Developer,

We're writing to let you know about a recent update to our Developer Policy Center. We make updates from time to time as part of a continuous effort to make Google Play a positive experience for both developers and consumers. This email is to inform you of recent changes we've made to our policies, which are highlighted below.

We've more clearly defined the geographical restrictions for our gambling policy.
We've provided clarity on baseline functionality that must be present for apps on the Store.
We've identified certain guide app behavior that will not be permitted on the Store.
We've taken additional steps to protect users by limiting how and when developers can make permission requests.

Any new apps or app updates published after this notification will immediately be subject to the latest version of the Developer Program Policies. If you find any existing apps in your catalog that don't comply, please fix the app and submit it again, or unpublish the app within 30 days of receiving this email.

Please note that the Help Center now includes an important update on Google Play In-app Billing transaction fees for developers who sell subscriptions via their Google Play-distributed apps.
