On noes! Google Play has a new policy about user conscent notifications

[yuriythebest]

Dear Publisher,

We want to let you know about a new policy about obtaining EU end-users’ consent that reflects regulatory and best practice guidance. It clarifies your duty to obtain end-user consent when you use products like Google AdSense, DoubleClick for Publishers, and DoubleClick Ad Exchange.

Please review our new EU user consent policy as soon as possible. This requires that you obtain EU end users’ consent to the storing and accessing of cookies and other information, and to the data collection, sharing, and usage that takes place when you use Google products. It does not affect any provisions on data ownership in your contract.

Please ensure that you comply with this policy as soon as possible, and not later than 30th September 2015.

If your site or app does not have a compliant consent mechanism, you should implement one now. To make this process easier for you, we have compiled some helpful resources at cookiechoices.org.

This policy change is being made in response to best practice and regulatory requirements issued by the European data protection authorities. These requirements are reflected in changes recently made on Google’s own websites.

Thank you in advance for your understanding and cooperation.

Regards,
The Google Policy Team

The question is, what will be considered an acceptable way to implement this in Unity3D?
the email leads to this site:

however there the explanation is a bit vague - we are supposed to display a message like so:

We use device identifiers to personalise content and ads, to provide social media features and to analyse our traffic. We also share such identifiers and other information from your device with our social media, advertising and analytics partners. See details

However, information about the “see details” is vague - like, what If I use several ads - do I link to them all? I wish there was a finished app where I could see an example implementation

Just flash up a UI panel with the appropriate privacy policy text at the start. Player must tick a box saying “I have read and consent”. It should also include a link to your website with a full privacy policy.

As a consumer I personally hate this ruling. Its so annoying to constantly acknowledge privacy policies.

what do you do if you dont have a website?

@avtar109

what do you do if you dont have a website?

Get one. There are plenty of free hosts around. I am frankly surprised you can even submit an app to the store without a website with a privacy policy. Its pretty much the law in every country that can afford internet access.

If you are really strapped for a website, a link to a google doc will be sufficient. It just needs to be accessible.

Edit: Actually I just taught myself web development. For a small fee I can build a website for you.
