Privacy Policy Generator

隐私政策生成器

Generates a comprehensive privacy policy for Android apps by scanning the project and creating a GitHub Pages-ready Markdown document.
通过扫描项目并创建可直接用于GitHub Pages的Markdown文档，为Android应用生成全面的隐私政策。

Overview

概述

Why this is needed:
  • Google Play requires a privacy policy URL for all apps
  • Privacy policy must be on a publicly accessible, non-geofenced URL
  • Cannot be a PDF (must be HTML or plain text)
  • Health Connect apps have additional disclosure requirements
What this skill does:
  1. Scans AndroidManifest.xml for permissions and features
  2. Analyzes build.gradle for third-party SDKs
  3. Detects Health Connect integration
  4. Prompts for missing information
  5. Generates privacy policy in Markdown
  6. Provides GitHub Pages setup instructions
为何需要此工具：
  • Google Play要求所有应用提供隐私政策URL
  • 隐私政策必须托管在可公开访问、无地理限制的URL上
  • 不能是PDF格式（必须为HTML或纯文本）
  • 使用Health Connect的应用有额外的披露要求
此工具的功能：
  1. 扫描AndroidManifest.xml获取权限和功能信息
  2. 分析build.gradle中的第三方SDK
  3. 检测Health Connect集成情况
  4. 提示补充缺失的信息
  5. 生成Markdown格式的隐私政策
  6. 提供GitHub Pages的设置指南

操作流程

Step 1: Scan Project for App Information

步骤1：扫描项目获取应用信息

Extract from AndroidManifest.xml:
bash
undefined
从AndroidManifest.xml提取信息：
bash
undefined

Get package name

Get package name

PACKAGE_NAME=$(grep "package=" app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml | head -1 | sed 's/.package="([^"])".*/\1/') echo "Package: $PACKAGE_NAME"
PACKAGE_NAME=$(grep "package=" app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml | head -1 | sed 's/.package="([^"])".*/\1/') echo "Package: $PACKAGE_NAME"

Get app name (from strings.xml)

Get app name (from strings.xml)

APP_NAME=$(grep 'name="app_name"' app/src/main/res/values/strings.xml | sed 's/.>([^<])<.*/\1/') echo "App name: $APP_NAME"
APP_NAME=$(grep 'name="app_name"' app/src/main/res/values/strings.xml | sed 's/.>([^<])<.*/\1/') echo "App name: $APP_NAME"

Check for permissions

Check for permissions

echo "Scanning permissions..." PERMISSIONS=$(grep "<uses-permission" app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml | sed 's/.android:name="([^"])".*/\1/')
echo "Scanning permissions..." PERMISSIONS=$(grep "<uses-permission" app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml | sed 's/.android:name="([^"])".*/\1/')

Check for Health Connect

Check for Health Connect

HEALTH_CONNECT=$(echo "$PERMISSIONS" | grep -i "health" || echo "") if [[ -n "$HEALTH_CONNECT" ]]; then echo "✓ Health Connect detected" fi
undefined
HEALTH_CONNECT=$(echo "$PERMISSIONS" | grep -i "health" || echo "") if [[ -n "$HEALTH_CONNECT" ]]; then echo "✓ Health Connect detected" fi
undefined

Step 2: Analyze Third-Party SDKs

步骤2：分析第三方SDK

Scan build.gradle.kts for common libraries:
bash
echo "Scanning dependencies..."
扫描build.gradle.kts中的常见库：
bash
echo "Scanning dependencies..."

Check for analytics

ANALYTICS="" grep -q "firebase-analytics" app/build.gradle.kts && ANALYTICS="$ANALYTICS Firebase Analytics," grep -q "google-analytics" app/build.gradle.kts && ANALYTICS="$ANALYTICS Google Analytics,"
ANALYTICS="" grep -q "firebase-analytics" app/build.gradle.kts && ANALYTICS="$ANALYTICS Firebase Analytics," grep -q "google-analytics" app/build.gradle.kts && ANALYTICS="$ANALYTICS Google Analytics,"

Check for ads

Check for ads

ADS="" grep -q "admob" app/build.gradle.kts && ADS="$ADS AdMob," grep -q "facebook-ads" app/build.gradle.kts && ADS="$ADS Facebook Audience Network,"
ADS="" grep -q "admob" app/build.gradle.kts && ADS="$ADS AdMob," grep -q "facebook-ads" app/build.gradle.kts && ADS="$ADS Facebook Audience Network,"

Check for crash reporting

Check for crash reporting

CRASH_REPORTING="" grep -q "crashlytics" app/build.gradle.kts && CRASH_REPORTING="$CRASH_REPORTING Firebase Crashlytics,"
echo "Analytics: ${ANALYTICS:-None}" echo "Ads: ${ADS:-None}" echo "Crash reporting: ${CRASH_REPORTING:-None}"
undefined
CRASH_REPORTING="" grep -q "crashlytics" app/build.gradle.kts && CRASH_REPORTING="$CRASH_REPORTING Firebase Crashlytics,"
echo "Analytics: ${ANALYTICS:-None}" echo "Ads: ${ADS:-None}" echo "Crash reporting: ${CRASH_REPORTING:-None}"
undefined

Step 3: Detect Health Connect Data Types

步骤3：检测Health Connect数据类型

If Health Connect is detected, extract data types:
bash
undefined
如果检测到Health Connect，提取对应的数据类型：
bash
undefined

Scan for Health Connect permission declarations

Scan for Health Connect permission declarations

HEALTH_PERMISSIONS=$(grep "health.permission" app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml || echo "")
HEALTH_PERMISSIONS=$(grep "health.permission" app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml || echo "")

Common Health Connect data types

Troubleshooting

故障排除

"Cannot find app name"

"无法找到应用名称"

Cause: app_name not defined in strings.xml Fix: Add 
<string name="app_name">Your App Name</string>
to res/values/strings.xml
原因： strings.xml中未定义app_name 解决方法： 在res/values/strings.xml中添加
<string name="app_name">您的应用名称</string>

"Git config not found"

"未找到Git配置"

Cause: Git user not configured Fix: Run 
git config --global user.name "Your Name"
and 
git config --global user.email "email@example.com"
原因： 未配置Git用户信息 解决方法： 运行
git config --global user.name "您的姓名"
和
git config --global user.email "email@example.com"

"Health permissions not detected"

"未检测到健康权限"

Cause: Health Connect permissions not declared in manifest Fix: Verify permissions are correctly declared in AndroidManifest.xml
原因： AndroidManifest.xml中未声明Health Connect权限 解决方法： 确认权限已正确声明在AndroidManifest.xml中
