If you ads provider says it’s follows your customers you either:

Add that to your privacy policy and App Store privacy notice
or remove the ads provider

You can’t just say “naa they might say they do, but we won’t so it’s all good right? Trust me bro”

They did option 1. The big app stores require that disclosure these days.

Problem is, people were surprised that a stupid wallpaper app from a know person / brand had ads and ad tracking like scam mobile game.

  Brownlee says these data disclosures are “likely too broad” and that “we’d never actually actually ask for your location, internet history, etc.”
  
  Yes indeed then they received complaints about said disclosure and are attempting to make it out to be a mistake.
