- [ ] Host [PRIVACY.md](../PRIVACY.md) at a public URL and paste that URL into the
Play Console. **This is mandatory** because the app accesses photos. The contact address
in it is final (`softwareapp.hb@gmail.com`), so the file publishes as-is.
This is the one item here that cannot be finished from the working copy, because the repo
has **no git remote** yet. Shortest route:
1. create a public repository and push this working copy:
```bash
git remote add origin git@github.com:<user>/foto-dup-finder.git
git push -u origin main
```
2. **Settings › Pages › Source: Deploy from a branch**, branch `main`, folder `/ (root)`;
3. the policy then renders at `https://<user>.github.io/foto-dup-finder/PRIVACY.html` —
open that in a private window to prove it needs no login, then paste it into
**App content › Privacy policy**.
**Hosting half done (2026-10-14):** the working copy is published to the Gitea instance as
[`fishfacegit/foto-duplicate-finder`](https://gitea.softwareapp-hb.de/fishfacegit/foto-duplicate-finder)
(`origin` = `ssh://git@gitea-container.incus:2222/fishfacegit/foto-duplicate-finder.git`), so
the policy now has a public, login-free URL:
- **rendered HTML (use this one in the Console):**
`https://gitea.softwareapp-hb.de/fishfacegit/foto-duplicate-finder/src/branch/main/PRIVACY.md`
- raw `text/plain` fallback:
`https://gitea.softwareapp-hb.de/fishfacegit/foto-duplicate-finder/raw/branch/main/PRIVACY.md`
Any static host works the same way; the requirement is only that the URL is public, stable
and readable without an account.
What is left is the Console paste: open the URL in a private window to prove it needs no
login, then put it in **App content › Privacy policy**. A dedicated HTML page (the landing
page would do) reads better than a file view inside the repo; any static host works the same
way, the requirement is only that the URL is public, stable and readable without an account.
