Here are 3 examples identified in their results.

Play Store pages for all 3 list strong assurances about how the developer declares no data is being sold to third parties, or collected unrelated to the item's core functionality.

Brave Web browser (runapps.org) https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/mmfmakmndejojblgcee...

Handbrake Video Converter (runapps.org) https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/gmdmkobghhnhmipbppl...

JustParty: Watch Netflix with Friends (JustParty.io) https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/nhhchicejoohhbnhjpa...

My open question to Google is: What consequences will these developers face for lying to you and your users, and why should I have any faith at all in those declarations?
