Setting the user's opt status

This information helps you with a GDPR data deletion request.

Important: Starting with Experience Cloud iOS SDKs 4.15, setting the privacy status to unknown holds Audience Manager and Experience Cloud ID hits.

You can control whether Analytics, Target, and Audience Manager activity is allowed on a device by using the following settings:

• privacyDefault in ADBMobile JSON Config.

  This setting controls the initial setting that persists until it is changed in code.

• setPrivacyStatus method.

  After the privacy setting is changed by using this method, the change is permanent until it is changed again by using this method, or when you uninstall and install the app again.

  For more information about the methods, see Configuration Methods.

Here is information about each privacy status:

• Opt in

  • Analytics: Hits are sent.
  • Target: Mbox requests are sent.
