Privacy Compliance

How it works: The Despia Apple Privacy Status SDK enables your application to check a user's privacy consent status to ensure compliance with Apple's App Tracking Transparency (ATT), GDPR tracking requirements, and other privacy regulations. This lightweight solution helps your app adhere to App Store guidelines and user consent rules through despia.trackingDisabled.

Installation

Install the Despia package from NPM:

Copynpm install despia-native

Usage

1. Import the SDK

Copyimport despia from 'despia-native';

2. Get Privacy Consent Status

Access the tracking consent status from the despia.trackingDisabled variable:

Copy// Simple example - show privacy status and sync with compliance
const isTrackingDisabled = despia.trackingDisabled;

// Display in UI
<p>Tracking Disabled: {isTrackingDisabled ? 'Yes' : 'No'}</p>

// Sync with backend for compliance tracking
fetch('/api/sync-privacy', {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    userId: user.id,
    trackingDisabled: isTrackingDisabled,
    timestamp: new Date().toISOString()
  })
});

Backend Integration

This is merely an illustration; your implementation may differ.

Copy// /api/sync-privacy endpoint
export default async function handler(req, res) {
  const { userId, trackingDisabled, timestamp } = req.body;
  
  try {
    // Store the privacy consent status in your database
    await db.collection('user_privacy').doc(userId).set({
      userId,
      trackingDisabled,
      lastChecked: timestamp,
      createdAt: timestamp
    }, { merge: true });

    res.status(200).json({ success: true });
  } catch (error) {
    res.status(500).json({ error: 'Failed to sync privacy status' });
  }
}
