Since the android temple adds "android.permission.GET_ACCOUNTS", Google Play now wants me to include a privacy policy with my app. I don't collect any personal information but I do use In App Purchases and Google Ads.

Can I remove this permission from my code or does anyone have a generic privacy policy they can share. I tried the free privacy policy generators but they don't seem to fit someone that doesn't actually collect any personal information.

Just write one that says, "we don't collect any personal data."

I got this alert too, but don't quite understand why AppGameKit sets the permission of Contacts and Identity. Seems those are not really pertinent to any of the features offered in AppGameKit unless I'm missing something obvious (which I might be).

I use this privacy policy for Google and iOS just so I don't get any complaints etc and have had no problems with it from Google or Apple, just change it to suite

The android.permission.GET_ACCOUNTS permission is used to download expansion files. If you don't use them then you can remove that permission.
