UMP Android user data encryption in-transit

[Yulian Gyurov]

Hi guys!

Data safety form in Play Console asks if all of the user data collected by your(my) app encrypted in-transit.

Does User Messaging Platform SDK for Android encrypts user data in-transit ? 

Information here does not explain how user data were transfered: https://developers.google.com/admob/ump/android/quick-start

Thank you in advance!

Hi there,

The UMP SDK writes the consent status into IAB defined TC string into SharedPreference on Android devices, which is not encrypted, so that any IAB conformed Ad networks' SDK can read it. The Google Mobile SDK encrypts the TC string when it reads it and sends the encrypted data to our server.
