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 );
