“ What are the standards for considering and approving iPhone applications? What is the approval process for such applications (timing, reasons for rejection, appeal process, etc.) ? What is the percentage of applications that are rejected? What are the major reasons for rejecting an application? Request for Confidential Treatment. If Apple requests that any information or documents responsive to this letter be treated in a confidential manner, it shall submit, along with all responsive information and documents, a statement in accordance with section 0.459 of the Commission’s rules. ”

“ Requests for confidential treatment must comply with the requirements of section 0.459, including the standards of specificity mandated by section 0.459 (b) . Accordingly, “blanket” requests for confidentiality of a large set of documents are unacceptable. ”
