> What a bizarre paragraph. First it explicitly makes it clear that it's forbidden to send the payment information using contact information obtained via the app. However the last sentence is a generic statement that seems to contradict that. Does Apple mean that you can only use contact information obtained elsewhere? That would then match the previous terms. So it's probably that. However it is worded in such a horrible way that I can't be sure.
That sounds like you can’t use contact info you received as part of a paid signup to contact to switch to an out of band payment method.
In contrast to contacting a free tier user who’s email you’ve received as part of their signup flow. That situation would be allowed.
Indeed it’s bizarre as depending on when the contact data was gathered decides what you can do with it.
- riversflow 5y agoThe way I interpret it is that you can email all your free users at the same time, with the below email, but you can't target individuals users and email them one at a time. My guess is what they are trying to avoid is a flow of: user signs up for free account with email => you inbox them saying: Subject: save 30% over in-app prices! Body: "don't pay through the app, use this link to our website"
- tommymachine 5y agoIt seems to me that paragraph hasn't been updated to reflect the settlement terms yet, since the settlement was filed today?
- Strom 5y agoThat seems to be the case yes. The settlement hasn't been approved yet either.
