ATT and Consent Provider

[dreamy moth]

In my game at launch i give ATT permission popup for iOS. After that is done the admob consent provider asks for its consent. So now there is a conflict that happens is that if user says no in ATT but allows in consent there is a conflict in permission. How can i manage this, and also is there way to initalize adsmanager without consent?
Also can i override the consent asking by the ATT permission without showing consent popup

Its handled automatically by the Admob. The ATT permission you see is actually triggered by Admob official plugin and not ours.
If ATT is denied, it respects the decision(about tracking the user) irrespective of consent popups submission.

Initialise expects consent provider as its a requirement before we initialize the ad networks.
You can provide your own consent provider if you wish to.

But as ATT permission is currently handled by Admob sdk internally, it's not possible to show ATT and not the consent dialog as its totally not exposed by Admob.

As per their support

In the scenario you described, the user has not consented to GDPR, so the publisher cannot collect or use their data. The user has also refused to grant ATT consent, so the publisher cannot use the IDFA to track the user across different apps. As a result, the AdMob SDK will not track the user.

So i had sent my app for review. But got rejected by appstore review team saying this. If what you say is true then is there an issue with the Admob SDK privacy settings internally?

currently also i was showing ATT using a code i have written. If what you say is true should i remove that and let the admob sdk handle the ATT permission

Or will it only handle it in EU?

[obtuse lynx]

They will handle for every region where applicable. In non gdpr regions they just dont prompt the consent and still consider ATT status

[dreamy moth]

So they will always spawn the ATT status no matter what? correct

[obtuse lynx]

Yes, ATT is required irrespective of the region. Where as GDPR consent is something for specific regions only.

Once the consent is submitted by the user, they write some flags(predefined defined by IAB) to disk and other networks just fetches these and behave accordingly on how and what needs to be collected.

Maybe if i let admob handle ATT and GDPR it will work as needed.

[obtuse lynx]

Yes, You can let it handle as there are no open issues related to it.

Yes, thanks for the help
