Send App Usage Permission

After WWDC 2019 Apple updated the App Store Guidelines

Guideline 5.1.1(i). Apps must get consent for data collection, even if the data is considered anonymous at the time of or immediately following collection.

(ii) Permission Apps that collect user or usage data must secure user consent for the collection, even if such data is considered to be anonymous at the time of or immediately following collection.

Inspired WWDC App I made class to help developers & community save time and comply with the App Store Guidelines.
