Trust grows when you explain clearly, honor choices, and protect data by default. This reduces complaints and speeds reviews. Over time it raises retention and referrals. Treat privacy like product quality and improve it on a schedule.

These problems cause complaints, takedowns, fines, and lost deals. Add guardrails, testing, and logs so you can show your work.
