Regarding Apple Store submission - US Export Compliance #43

Open sreekm opened 7 years ago

I wanted to know whether this plugin is compliant with the cryptography compliance that is checked during Apple review.

I've used this plugin for a few of my most recent app submission/reviews and had no issues. I'm also only releasing my app to the US market.

Thank you Kevin. But as per my understanding, for US market, export compliance is not applicable. I want to know about the Export compliance outside US market.

I'm not a law expert at all, but do strongly believe that this great plugin itself falls under Note 4 exclusions from Chapter 5, Part 2 of the CCL (https://www.bis.doc.gov/index.php/policy-guidance/encryption/identifying-encryption-items#Three), as the main "cryptographic functionality" is limited to use of standard algorithms to decrypt-only digital content for the purposes of digital rights management ("copyright").

However, I have no problems with apps submissions (not only for US market).
