We recommend that you consult with legal professionals to address any of your specific needs.
According to Google's guidelines, app developers publishing on Google Play are required to disclose the app’s privacy practices by completing the data safety form. This allows Google to inform users of how an app, including through its use of third-party SDKs, collects and shares user data.
The Airbridge SDK, which is highly configurable, collects user data necessary for measuring ad performance. When submitting your Airbridge SDK-integrated app to Google Play for review, make sure to provide details on the data collected by your app and the custom-configured Airbridge SDK.
To fill out the data safety form and disclose your app’s privacy practices, select your app in Google Play Console and navigate to the [Policy]>[App content] page.
The tables below will help you complete the form with respect to your use of Airbridge. However, it is your responsibility to respond in accordance with your specific data practices, configurations, and integrations.

According to Apple’s guidelines, app developers publishing on the App Store are required to disclose the app’s privacy practices by answering app privacy questions. This allows Apple to inform users of how an app, including through its use of third-party SDKs, collects and shares user data in the format of a nutrition label.
The Airbridge SDK, which is highly configurable, collects user data necessary for measuring ad performance. When submitting your Airbridge SDK-integrated app to the App Store for review, make sure to provide details on the data collected by your app and the custom-configured Airbridge SDK.
To answer app privacy questions and disclose your app’s privacy practices, select your app in App Store Connect and navigate to the [General]>[App Privacy] page in the sidebar.
The tables below will help you answer app privacy questions with respect to your use of Airbridge. However, it is your responsibility to respond in accordance with your specific data practices, configurations, and integrations.

Note
It is advised that you prepare the privacy manifest in advance for your convenience in case of App Store policy changes. However, this is not legal advice. Consult with legal professionals to address any of your specific needs.
Starting May 1, 2024, Apple requires app developers to declare approved reasons for using a set of APIs in their app’s privacy manifest to inform the App Store of their app’s privacy requirements. By adding the privacy manifest, app developers do not have to enter privacy details manually and can more readily address App Store policy changes.
Even though it is no longer necessary to enter privacy details manually, the app has to be resubmitted for review for every Airbridge iOS SDK update, as it always has been the process.
To add the privacy manifest, update the Airbridge SDK to the following or later version. No other action is required.
iOS SDK 1.36.5
React Native SDK 2.8.3
Flutter SDK 3.5.3
Cordova SDK 2.6.3
Expo SDK 2.6.4
Unity SDK 1.14.1
Unreal SDK 1.3.3
