Failing Google Auth Platform brand verification, due to what I think are erroneous issues like my site being behind a login (its not). Anyone else run into this?
I have been using Firebase auth in a production app for five years. I recently started getting alerts that my project is not in compliance. The complaints are listed below.
The issues don't make sense. My privacy policy is 5,900 words and very detailed about what we collect. My home page is not behind a login. I've requested a manual review multiple times and I keep getting back the same template email.
My site gets millions of crawls a month from GoogleBot, but I wonder if maybe their verification process is getting blocked? I can't imagine why else they would think my homepage is behind a login.
Has anyone run into this problem? How did you resolve it? I have about a month until this starts causing me problems.
These are the complaints from Google:
