If you subcontract the development, management, uploading or distribution of your Gambling Apps, in whole or in part, to any third parties, including, but not limited to, any affiliate entities or any of your associated companies, you are responsible for compliance by such third parties with the Google Play Gambling Terms and Conditions and for any acts or omissions of the third parties pursuant to the Google Play Gambling Terms and Conditions.

No binding agreement is entered into until such time as Google notifies you that your application has been accepted. Google will send you a notification if and when your application has been accepted.
