Apple refused iOS app review because of using Google consent

[Szilárd]

Hello,

In my iOS app, I use Google AdMob GDPR consent, with showing Apple's AppTrackingTransparency (ATT) dialog after Google's own GDPR consent (this is implemented by Google, as I know there is no way to change this behaviour.

Apple rejected my app with the following reason:

The app includes a GDPR prompt and an App Tracking Transparency permission request, but they are implemented in a way that might confuse the user.

Specifically, the app shows the App Tracking Transparency permission request after the user has already requested you not to track on the GDPR prompt.

In addition to App Tracking Transparency, it is important to include all disclosures required by local laws and regulations wherever the app is distributed. These disclosures should be implemented in a way that is clear and respects the user's choices, regardless of the order in which they are presented to the user.

Next Steps

If the user denies permission to track once, do not ask them to allow tracking again within the same permission request flow. There should be no tracking activity until the user grants permission to track.

If you collect data after the user selects "Ask App Not to Track" on the App Tracking Transparency permission request, please revise the GDPR prompt and clarify that you collect data but do not track.
