Complying with Data Privacy Laws

Singular provides privacy-safeguarding functionality to help you cooperate with any partners who may be complying with consumer privacy laws such as GDPR and CCPA (California Consumer Privacy Act). These partners want to be notified if the end-user has consented to share their private information.

LimitDataSharing

Notify Singular of user consent (opt-in) for sharing private data.

• The limitDataSharing method gives you an option to control whether your app sends user data to third parties. This is useful if you want to restrict data sharing based on user preferences or privacy requirements.

Additional Methods for GDPR Compliance

The Singular SDK provides several methods to help you comply with GDPR policies and let Singular know about user consent or non-consent for tracking.

• The trackingOptIn method is used to send a "gdpr" event to Singular's servers. If you don't call this method, the app will continue tracking users as if they have given consent, but it won't specifically mark them as GDPR opt-in. If your app needs to comply with GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation), you should call this function to ensure that user consent is properly recorded.
• The stopAllTracking method is used to stop all tracking activities for the user on this app. This effectively disables the Singular SDK, even after you restart the app. The only way to re-enable the SDK is by calling resumeAllTracking.
• The resumeAllTracking method is used to resume tracking activities for the user on this app.
• The isAllTrackingStopped method is used to check the tracking status for the user on this app. Returns true if tracking has been stopped.
