iubenda is built for websites. App Review checks more than a policy.
iubenda is a mature product for web and web-app legal compliance: GDPR/CCPA privacy and cookie policies, consent banners, and records of processing for businesses with a legal obligation to keep them. If you found it while figuring out how to satisfy the App Store, the thing worth knowing up front is that it overlaps with Apple's requirements on exactly one item — the privacy policy — and diverges on everything else.
Apple's App Review verifies a specific bundle of web URLs and files for an iOS or macOS app: a privacy policy URL, a support URL (Guideline 1.5), an account-deletion path (Guideline 5.1.1(v)), and an apple-app-site-association file if you use Universal Links, App Clips, or Passkeys. iubenda generates the policy; the rest are outside its scope. That's not a shortcoming — it's a different product for a different job.
What OrbitKit covers that iubenda doesn't
Apple-category privacy policy
A 12-step wizard mapped to Apple's 14 data categories, not legal jurisdictions — so the policy matches your App Privacy nutrition label and doesn't trigger a data-mismatch flag in App Review.
AASA file for Universal Links
The apple-app-site-association generator serves a correct, no-extension, application/json file at /.well-known/ so Universal Links, App Clips, and Passkeys resolve. iubenda has no equivalent.
Support & data-deletion pages
Guideline 1.5 needs a support URL; Guideline 5.1.1(v) needs a linked account-deletion path. OrbitKit generates both as hosted pages on your domain. A web legal suite doesn't address either.
Hosted on your domain, auto-SSL
Every page goes live at https://your-domain.com/… with automatic SSL — no separate hosting, DNS gymnastics, or CMP wiring that native apps don't use.
iubenda vs OrbitKit, at a glance
Pick iubenda if…
You run a website or SaaS with an EU audience and need cookie consent plus a maintained legal-compliance record. App Store submission isn't part of your problem, and a CMP is.
Pick OrbitKit if…
You're shipping an Apple-platform app and need the App Store's web requirements — policy, support, deletion, and AASA — not just a policy, and you'd rather not run separate tools and hosting for each.
The structural reason this matters
A web-compliance privacy policy is written around legal jurisdictions: which GDPR articles apply, what CCPA rights exist. An App Store privacy policy is checked against Apple's data taxonomy and your binary's actual behavior. Both are "privacy policies," but App Review grades against a different rubric than a GDPR auditor.
A tool built for one rubric won't optimize for the other. OrbitKit is built for Apple's rubric, end to end — the policy answers feed the same wizard that produces your nutrition-label preview, your support page, your deletion page, and your AASA file, so they stay consistent with each other and with App Store Connect.
iubenda alternative questions
What's the difference between iubenda and OrbitKit?
iubenda is a web legal-compliance suite built around GDPR/CCPA privacy policies, cookie consent, and consent records for websites and web apps. OrbitKit is built for Apple App Store submission: it generates and hosts the full bundle of web URLs App Review checks — privacy policy, support page, data deletion page, and the apple-app-site-association file — on your own domain.
Does iubenda generate an apple-app-site-association file?
No. iubenda is oriented around web legal documents, not Apple platform infrastructure. It does not produce an AASA file for Universal Links, a support URL, or a data-deletion page. OrbitKit generates all of these alongside the privacy policy.
Can I use iubenda's privacy policy for my iOS app?
You can paste any privacy policy URL into App Store Connect. The risk is that a web-oriented policy is written around legal jurisdictions rather than Apple's 14 data categories, so it can disagree with your App Privacy nutrition label and trigger a data-mismatch flag during App Review. OrbitKit's wizard maps to Apple's categories so the policy and label stay aligned.
Is OrbitKit cheaper than iubenda for an iOS app?
OrbitKit is $5/mo per app to take a site live, or $50/yr. It's free to build and preview everything first — there's no trial because there's nothing to time-box. iubenda's pricing varies by plan and includes web/CMP features many native apps don't need. Compare against the App Store requirements you actually have to satisfy.
Do I still need a lawyer?
OrbitKit produces structured pages that meet App Store Connect's requirements and reflect your inputs. It is not legal advice. For specific regulatory questions (GDPR, CCPA, COPPA), consult a qualified attorney — same caveat that applies to any generator, iubenda included.
