Maybe this should be added to the README?

actually, this should be provided by this package: see: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/bundleresources/privacy_manifest_files/describing_data_use_in_privacy_manifests

Important

Third-party SDKs need to provide their own privacy manifest files that record the types of data they collect. Your app’s privacy manifest file doesn’t need to cover data collected by third-party SDKs that your app links to.

Could a corresponding privacy manifest be included in the repo please?
