Why App Review rejects under Guideline 5.1.1

5.1.1 covers everything about what data the app touches and whether the user was told. In practice three sub-cases account for most rejections: a permission string that is missing, unclear, or declared for an API the app never calls; a missing PrivacyInfo.xcprivacy for the app or for an SDK on Apple's required list; and account creation without an in-app deletion path (5.1.1(v)). All three can be checked against the binary before submitting — the manifest is a file, the strings are keys, the APIs are symbols.

How to fix it

Explain why the app accesses the calendar (NSCalendarsUsageDescription / NSCalendarsFullAccessUsageDescription).

How RejectProof detects it

The scan reads your .ipa in the browser (or locally with npx rejectproof): Info.plist, entitlements, the privacy manifest, embedded frameworks and the executable itself. Check PB-06 reports the exact evidence it found — the key, the symbol, the file or the URL — so you can confirm it in your own project before changing anything. Nothing is uploaded; only a small redacted summary is sent to build the report, and you see it first.
