About COPPA
If you have a child-directed app or game, you may worry that the data you send to devtodev is anonymised and protected enough. It’s not a problem anymore with our updated SDK because it operates in full compliance with COPPA — the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act. COPPA imposes certain requirements on operators of websites or online services directed to children under 13 years of age, and on operators of other websites or online services that have actual knowledge that they are collecting personal information online from a child under 13 years of age.
How does the SDK Process Data after the Update?
This updated version of devtodev SDK does not collect, process or store ad IDs of children. It simply creates anonymised user identification numbers that can be used by the platform for tracking underaged users without influencing the decisions they make.
If you already use devtodev SDK, all you need to do is to enable the COPPA-compliance opinion before SDK initialization and delete the dependencies necessary for processing ad and vendor IDs. This will not interfere with your working process because almost all devtodev reports will stay available and you will be able to use them as you did before.
