We've been told Google Play transparently shows what data is collected etc, right? And whether an app has Ads? Well, dream on. I've just checked an app to see if it would fit my repo. Below is what Play (play.google.com/store/apps/det) says about it (no "Ads" marker), then the results from my library scanner.

Careful what you believe and whom you trust.

"Data Safety" section of the app on Google Play, saying "No data shared with third parties. No data collected"
For the very same app: Results by my library scanner, showing the app contains libraries of 2 Analytics frameworks (Crashlytics, Firebase Analytics) plus Google Ads. This must mean that Google is no "third party" and doesn't collect any data. And the pope is muslim I guess, or so.
