Hello everyone,
I recently received an email from Apple titled "Notification of Apple Developer Program License Agreement (“DPLA”) violation:" stating that I may have violated Section 11.2 (Termination) of the agreement. The specific clause mentioned relates to engaging in or encouraging misleading, fraudulent, improper, or dishonest acts, such as manipulating App Store rankings or reviews.
I’m unsure what triggered this notification as I have always adhered to Apple’s guidelines. Recently, I ran a promotional campaign for my app, where it was made temporarily free, leading to a significant spike in downloads. I suspect this may have raised a flag, but everything was done transparently and without intent to violate any rules.
I’ve reached out to Apple Support for clarification, but I wanted to ask here if anyone has experienced something similar or could provide insights into resolving this.
I value my membership in the Apple Developer Program and want to ensure everything is compliant. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
