With the ScreenTime API Apple talks a lot about their focus on privacy and the data not leaving the device. Does that mean there would be a problem with an app where the users ScreenTime data is shared to a custom backend? Could this potentially cause an app to be rejected from the AppStore?

Hey, were you ever able to get an answer on this topic ? I'm currently trying to figure out how this would work in practice. Since the data is tokenised, sending it to the server would be useless ?
