The restricted scope app verification verifies compliance with the Google API User Data Policy and an additional set of policies outlined in Additional Requirements for Specific API Scopes. First, your application will be reviewed for compliance with the Google API Services: User Data Policy. Thereafter, you will have the remainder of 2019 to demonstrate compliance with the secure handling requirements.
Assessments will be conducted by a Google-designated third-party assessor, may cost between $ 15,000 and $ 75,000 (or more) depending on the complexity of the application, and will be payable by the developer. This fee may be required whether or not your app passes the assessment .
For projects that require action, you must submit apps for verification before Feb 15th, 2019. If you don't, access for new users will be disabled on February 22nd, 2019, and existing grants for consumer accounts will be revoked on March 31st, 2019.
