TL;DR: Kodular does NOT collect any personal information from app users (nor does :appcenter: App Center Analytics) which could lead to user tracking.
In the sections below, you can find the information we can use to identify either you as a developer or your app usersâ.
Data about the developer in your apps
Kodular App ID
Your unique App ID is provided in your app manifest for analytics purposes.
Google Ad Manager Network Code
If you use Google Ad Manager components, we do store your network code inside the manifest of your app.
Data collected from your app usersâ
We do not collect any personal information which could allow us to identify each of your app usersâ; information is gather anonymously through :appcenter: App Center Analytics.
When a user launches an app for the first time, an Install ID is generated and it will be used to track the following data:
Country
Based on IP, to get an overview of demographics.
Â
Language
Based on device language.
Â
Session duration
Understood as the time the app is in foreground.
Â
Events
The following events are being triggered, and the data that is logged is:
As you can see, the only information which can be used to track is the App ID, which only allows to identify the developer of the app. It is impossible to track or analyze a single app user.
We donât collect any user data types. See below the reason of that âNoâ based on required data types:
Location
In :appcenter: App Center Analytics, Location is based on IP, so no location is tracked from the app.
Account management > Personal identifiers
They are defined as Identifiers that relate to an identifiable person. For example, an account ID, account number or account name.
As you could have read above, the Install ID is randomly generated, and it is not an account, so it is impossible to know which user owns that Install ID, either by us or by :appcenter: App Center.
Components and libraries
However, keep in mind that such form is only valid for components which do not require Internet, as we can guarantee that no information is tracked.
If you are using external components like Yandex Translate or Google Ad Manager ads, please refer to their privacy policies to check which data they collect. You may have to check the âYesâ in that case.
my app and my store, to which my customers have the option to make purchases of products from my store. In this case the person makes a registration, in this registration is collected name, address, postal zip code, telephone, . in this case Should I inform Yes or no ?
In that case you have to check a âYesâ. But that is up to what you store, you have full control on that part.
This post is intended to share the information we collect, which you cannot turn off.
If your app is a social site, online shop, game with registration, then you are collecting data. But it is up to what you are designing, we cannot help you with that as you are the one you know what you collect.
Hi, I have received the same message. I think that this is for the use of ads. But I am not sure @Diego, can you help us? In this case, probably, we have to check yes, but i do not know the following options, how the data are sent? Is the user data your application collects encrypted in transit?
May be, a guide can be welcome. Is anyone voluntary?
It is not just for ads. There are different type collected from apps by publishers list is available on Play Developer website. Provide information for Google Play's Data safety section - Play Console Help
But, most commonly in our cases, ads components adds location permission in manifest file. If you check play store more than 95% apps that are serving ads does not require location data.
I donât know why are we adding location permission in our apps for serving ads.
I hope they remove location permission from ads components and with this, most of the developer will be okay with âNo Data Collectedâ Settings.
HI!
I received an email from Google Play about a new form to fill. Everyone should will have to fill it. It is about the âData safetyâ of the information collected by our apps.
My app doesnât collect any personal data, but Iâm wondering if Onesignal collects any personal data from the user (e.g user device id etc). Does someone know about this?
still wait responce from kodular one of my friend marked no and rejected by google
if we marked yes what we have to do in next steps please kodular team help us
I also got the same email. I want to delete the permission (ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION) with Apk Editor Studio and it outputs it as Apk. I think google play will now ask for âaabâ. Also, when the permission is deleted, the ad or whatever using it can cause problems.
