Privacy 0 Last Modified on 2023-06-16
With Apple's new tightened privacy policy debuting on iOS 14, advertisers must obtain user's consent before they can track user's mobile app activities. Apple allowed mobile advertising ID (IDFA) on iOS and iPadOS devices, but they will no longer available without the user's consent.

Search Engine Optimization 0 Last Modified on 2023-07-06
