Submission of the apps for approval requires the completion of the "Data Safety" section, for which the privacy policy is an essential component. **Step 4: Understand Costs** - Apple charges $99/year, Google charges $25/year for developer account licenses. - These costs are separate and paid directly to Apple and Google. **Step 5: Set Up Apple and Google Developer Accounts** - You'll need your own Apple and Google developer accounts. Note: Enroll as a company/Organisation, not an individual. We cannot proceed if the accounts are not set up as an organisation. **Setting Up Your Apple Developer Account: Simplified Steps** Before you begin, ensure you have a confirmed DUNS number, as explained in the Branded App Configuration Document. **Step 1: Create Your Apple ID (If you don't have one)** If you already have a business Apple ID (not your personal one), skip to Step 2. - Go to[https://appleid.apple.com/account](https://appleid.apple.com/account) - Fill in your information to create your Apple ID. - Check your email for a verification code and enter it. - Accept the terms. **Step 2: Enroll in the Apple Developer Program** - Visit[https://developer.apple.com/programs/enroll/](https://developer.apple.com/programs/enroll/) - Click "Start Your Enrolment." - Use your business Apple ID. - Verify your identity with the code sent to you. - Continue Enrolment on the web. - Provide the requested details. - Choose "Company/Organisation" as the developer type. - Complete the remaining information. - Click "Continue." - Hit "Submit." - Apple will verify your business (usually 1-3 business days).
