To disable data tracking by the SDK use disableDataTracking() method as shown below. Once you have opted out of data tracking you need to explicitly opt-in to start tracking any event OR attributes for the user.
MoEngageSDKAnalytics.sharedInstance.disableDataTracking() //Opt outMoEngageSDKAnalytics.sharedInstance.enableDataTracking() //Opt in
[[MoEngageSDKAnalytics sharedInstance] disableDataTracking]; //Opt out[[MoEngageSDKAnalytics sharedInstance] enableDataTracking]; //Opt in
SDK tracks IDFA(Advertising Identifier) by default as a UserAttribute, it’s tracked only if the AdSupport, AppTrackingTransparency frameworks is included in the project and if the User has not limited Ad Tracking. In case you would want to opt-out of IDFA Tracking call the opt-out method as shown below:
MoEngageSDKAnalytics.sharedInstance.disableIDFATracking() //Opt outMoEngageSDKAnalytics.sharedInstance.enableIDFATracking() //Opt in
[[MoEngageSDKAnalytics sharedInstance] disableIDFATracking]; //Opt out[[MoEngageSDKAnalytics sharedInstance] enableIDFATracking]; // Opt in
Calling MoEngageSDKAnalytics.sharedInstance.enableIDFATracking() requires the AdSupport framework to be linked in your project. If the framework is missing, the SDK throws a fatal exception and crashes the app in DEBUG builds. In release builds, the call is dropped silently and IDFA is not tracked.
If you are upgrading an existing app and these strict DEBUG validations cause disruptive crashes while you refactor your tracking code, you can temporarily opt out by calling disableIntegrationValidator() during SDK initialization. Use this strictly as a stopgap for phased upgrades, and aim to remove the opt-out once your attribute call sites are properly validated.
SDK also tracks IDFV(Identifier for Vendor) by default as a device Identifier. In case you would want to opt-out of IDFV Tracking call the opt-out method as shown below:
MoEngageSDKAnalytics.sharedInstance.disableIDFVTracking() //Opt outMoEngageSDKAnalytics.sharedInstance.enableIDFVTracking() //Opt in
[[MoEngageSDKAnalytics sharedInstance] disableIDFVTracking]; //Opt out[[MoEngageSDKAnalytics sharedInstance] enableIDFVTracking]; //Opt in
IDFA and IDFV opt-outs are available from SDK version 6.1.1
If you don’t want the MoEngage SDK to track any user information or send any data to the MoEngage System use the below method:
MoEngage.sharedInstance.disableSDK()
[[MoEngage sharedInstance] disableSDK];
Once this API is called all the SDK APIs will be non-operational. SDK will be disabled until enableSDK() is called.Once you have the user’s consent use the below API to enable the SDK.
MoEngage.sharedInstance.enableSDK()
[[MoEngage sharedInstance] enableSDK];
Enable/Disable SDK methods are available from SDK version 6.3.0.
