Recent updates to the Google Publisher Policies have introduced new notice and consent requirements for publishers who pass precise location data of users to Google, for ads-related purposes.
If this policy applies to you, the following snippet shows one way you could inform your users of this data sharing:
Kotlin
protected fun presentConsentOverlay(context: Context) {
AlertDialog.Builder(context)
.setTitle("Location data")
.setMessage("We may use your location, " +
"and share it with third parties, " +
"for the purposes of personalized advertising, " +
"analytics, and attribution. " +
"To learn more, visit our privacy policy " +
"at https://myapp.com/privacy.")
.setNeutralButton("OK") { dialog, which ->
dialog.cancel()
// TODO: replace the below log statement with code that specifies how
// you want to handle the user's acknowledgement.
Log.d("MyApp", "Got consent.")
}
.show()
}
// To use the above function:
presentConsentOverlay(this)
Java
protected void presentConsentOverlay(Context context) {
new AlertDialog.Builder(context)
.setTitle("Location data")
.setMessage("We may use your location, " +
"and share it with third parties, " +
"for the purposes of personalized advertising, " +
"analytics, and attribution. " +
"To learn more, visit our privacy policy " +
"at https://myapp.com/privacy.")
.setNeutralButton("OK", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
dialog.cancel();
// TODO: replace the below log statement with code that specifies how
// you want to handle the user's acknowledgement.
Log.d("MyApp", "Got consent.");
}
})
.show();
}
// To use the above method:
presentConsentOverlay(this);
