Hi,
When should we use setTagForUnderAgeOfConsent(true) or setTagForUnderAgeOfConsent(false)?
Thank you
Mehmet.

Hello Mehmet,

Thank you for reaching out to us.

You can use the users under the age of consent with TAG_FOR_UNDER_AGE_OF_CONSENT_TRUE to indicate that you want the ad request to receive treatment for users in the European Economic Area (EEA) under the age of consent. While with TAG_FOR_UNDER_AGE_OF_CONSENT_FALSE to indicate that you want the ad request to not receive treatment for users in the European Economic Area (EEA) under the age of consent.

Hello Pamela,
Thank you for your response. If I use TAG_FOR_UNDER_AGE_OF_CONSENT_TRUE will ads not show for EEA users?

Best Regards,
Mehmet.

Hello Mehmet,

Thank you for your response.

If you set to true, this will request an ad to be handled in a manner suitable for users under the age of consent in EEA.

Hi Pamela,
If I do setTagForUnderAgeOfConsent(true) in Google UMP the consent form is not shown.

ConsentRequestParameters params = new ConsentRequestParameters
.Builder()
.setConsentDebugSettings(debugSettings)
.setTagForUnderAgeOfConsent(true)
.build();


Thanks.

Hi,
If I define setTagForUnderAgeOfConsent(true) function in Google UMP the consent form; I get the error ConsentForm is not available (isConsentFormAvailable false). If I set setTagForUnderAgeOfConsent(False) to false it works. Why am I getting a form error when defining setTagForUnderAgeOfConsent(True)?
Regards,
Abbas

Hi,
Instead of form error; Shouldn't a form be shown to determine whether non-personalized ads are allowed?
Is setTagForUnderAgeOfConsent(True) considered as a direct non-personalized ad display? Are there no ads shown?

Abbas

Hi Abbas,

If your app is primarily a family app, in which case you would set setTagForUnderAgeOfConsent(true), consent form won't be presented. Children under age of consent should not be presented a consent form.

You can still get ads once setting setTagForUnderAgeOfConsent(true). See more details in https://support.google.com/admob/answer/6223431?hl=en .

Hello,
so is there some difference  (for primarily  family app ) 
to   set   setTagForUnderAgeOfConsent(true)   or     NOT integrating the CMP at all ?


Thank you

Hello,

I see this original thread is from 2021. We have made updates to the UMP SDK since then - see our release notes for more information.

For both cases a TC string will not be present; however, we strongly recommend integrating a Google-certified CMP and tagging the consent request accordingly to be in compliance of the upcoming enforcement on January 16th, 2024.

Thanks,
Justin
