The following policy pertains to unmaintained applications in either the Apple or Google App Store.
If an application is no longer in a published state within either the Apple or Google App Store and has not been modified in 365 days, the UMAC team will reach out to the last known application sponsor to ask to have the application removed.
If the sponsor responds and indicates that they will return the app to a published state, the UMAC team will note this and consider the app to be active for six months. If there is no activity within those six months, the UMAC team will follow up to determine the right course of action for the application.
If the application sponsor does not respond to the initial email within 15 days of receipt, the UMAC team will send a follow up notice giving the application sponsor 30 days to either indicate that they will republish the app or that they will back up their application and remove it from the app store.
If there is no response within 30 days, the UMAC team will delete the application from the app store.
Please note, this policy applies to applications that are not currently in a published state.
