Does this plugin collect google advertisement id?

Open badihi opened this issue 6 years ago • 4 comments

My app is removed from Play Store because of collecting google advertisement identifier without providing a privacy policy. I'm using this plugin in my app and I suspect that this plugin is doing this. Can you please tell me is it true or not? Thanks

Hi, I've got the same problem, please could you provide config or action to do in order to "disable ads"? Many thanks!

What prevents you from providing a privacy policy? I am using this plugin with a privacy policy and without problems.

Hi, second times Google removes my app: I understand that I have to provide a privacy policy, and also to inform the user in the app (with a popup, or with a text written somewhere). But I do not use IDFA (I set window.ga.setAllowIDFACollection(false);). I would be great to have a version of this plugin without ads management.

I had this problem with the push notification plugin. Solution that worked for us:

    <platform name="android">
        <!-- other platform-specific stuff here -->
        <config-file platform="android" parent="/manifest/application" target="AndroidManifest.xml">
            <meta-data android:name="google_analytics_adid_collection_enabled" android:value="false" />
            <meta-data android:name="firebase_crash_collection_enabled" android:value="false" />
        </config-file>
    </platform>
