Data Use Checkup Best Practices

Before you complete your Data Use Checkup, please review the following best practices.

Before You Start

To prepare Data Use Checkup, we recommend that you:

  • Review our Platform Terms and Developer Policies.

  • Review the Business Verification process and ensure the app is connected to a verified business. See our blog post for more information on Business Verification.

  • Review the Data Handling Questions. Completing data handling questions is a requirement for all apps that have access to personal data of users.

  • Update contact details and app administrator designation for each app within your organization to receive the most up-to-date notifications.

  • Audit your apps and remove those that are no longer needed.

  • Review the permissions and features your apps have access to and remove any that are no longer needed.

  • It is recommended that you consult with legal, policy, and privacy experts within your organization for guidance on how to complete your Data Use Checkup.
