That's the same thing you posted in the comments on the add-on. As stated in my email reply about that, the Privacy Policy section is good (you mention the collection of user data there), but you also include a link to your privacy policy. You don't need to link the wiki.mozilla.org site.

Please post it again with a link to your privacy policy and we can add that to the description and re-enable it.

Arpit, please see my previous comment on this bug. You weren't CC'd before so you didn't get the email.

The toolbar has been re-enabled with you as the author and the updated description. The previous versions are still disabled, however, so you will need to upload the latest version again before it can be downloaded.
