Add Chartboost to GDPR and US state regulations ad partners list

按照 GDPR 设置美国州级法规设置 中的步骤,将 Chartboost 添加到 AdMob 界面中的 GDPR 和美国州级法规广告合作伙伴列表中。

Step 3: Import the Chartboost SDK and adapter

Download the latest version of Google Mobile Ads mediation plugin for Chartboost from the download link in the Changelog and extract GoogleMobileAdsChartboostMediation.unitypackage from the zip file.

In your Unity project editor, select Assets > Import Package > Custom Package and find the GoogleMobileAdsChartboostMediation.unitypackage file you downloaded. Make sure that all the files are selected and click Import.

Then, select Assets > Play Services Resolver > Android Resolver > Force Resolve. The Unity Play Services Resolver library will perform dependency resolution from scratch and copy the declared dependencies into the Assets/Plugins/Android directory of your Unity app.

Step 4: Implement privacy settings on Chartboost SDK

Under the Google EU User Consent Policy, you must ensure that certain disclosures are given to, and consents obtained from, users in the European Economic Area (EEA) regarding the use of device identifiers and personal data. This policy reflects the requirements of the EU ePrivacy Directive and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). When seeking consent, you must identify each ad network in your mediation chain that may collect, receive, or use personal data and provide information about each network's use. Google currently is unable to pass the user's consent choice to such networks automatically.

The Google Mobile Ads mediation plugin for Chartboost version 3.1.0 includes the Chartboost.AddDataUseConsent() method. The following sample code sets data use consent to NonBehavioral. If you choose to call this method, it is recommended that you do so prior to requesting ads using the Google Mobile Ads SDK.

using GoogleMobileAds.Api.Mediation.Chartboost;
// ...

Chartboost.AddDataUseConsent(CBGDPRDataUseConsent.NonBehavioral);

US states privacy laws

U.S. states privacy laws require giving users the right to opt out of the "sale" of their "personal information" (as the law defines those terms), with the opt-out offered via a prominent "Do Not Sell My Personal Information" link on the "selling" party's homepage. The U.S. states privacy laws compliance guide offers the ability to enable restricted data processing for Google ad serving, but Google is unable to apply this setting to each ad network in your mediation chain. Therefore, you must identify each ad network in your mediation chain that may participate in the sale of personal information and follow guidance from each of those networks to ensure compliance.

The Google Mobile Ads mediation plugin for Chartboost version 3.1.0 includes the Chartboost.AddDataUseConsent() method. The following sample code sets data use consent to OptInSale. If you choose to call this method, it is recommended that you do so prior to requesting ads using the Google Mobile Ads SDK.

using GoogleMobileAds.Api.Mediation.Chartboost;
// ...

Chartboost.AddDataUseConsent(CBCCPADataUseConsent.OptInSale);

Step 5: Add required code

Android

No additional code is required for Chartboost integration.

iOS

SKAdNetwork integration

Follow Chartboost's documentation to add the SKAdNetwork identifiers to your project's Info.plist file.

Step 6: Test your implementation

启用测试广告

请务必为AdMob 注册您的测试设备,并在 Chartboost 界面中启用测试模式

验证测试广告

如需验证您收到的是来自Chartboost的测试广告,请使用相应广告来源在广告检查器中启用单一广告来源测试Chartboost (Waterfall)

Optional Steps

Android

Permissions

For optimal performance, Chartboost recommends adding the following optional permissions to your app's AndroidManifest.xml file:

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE" />

iOS

No additional steps are required for iOS integration.
