After our app being rejected 3 times I thought I would share the steps we have been through in order to get our app through the review process. At this time we have submitted for a 4th time, but we are confident we have everything correct.
- These condition only apply if you want your app to be listed in the new KIDS category.
- You MUST have a privacy policy. We generated ours through www.iubenda.com
- You MUST have a support page for your app with the privacy policy as a page on your site.
- You MUST have a Parental Gate in your app for each action that causes the player to leave the app or make a purchase.
A parental gate as described by apple is a question or a task that is to hard for a small child to get correct and accidentally leave the app and access the internet or an in App purchase. We designed our own that if you get the correct answer you are taken to our privacy policy, but if your answer is wrong you are returned to the game.
I will post again when we are successful....or rejected again. Hopefully we have it right this time

Thank you for sharing
... Good Luck!
I am guessing a Parental Lock would also include a passcode to lock the child inside the app?
The concept is that you give the child a task that is a bit to hard for them to do, or they don't understand so they ask their parents first, or are unable to leave the app until they get the right answer.
