To publish applications for iOS, iPadOS, tvOS, and visionOS platforms on the App Store, you must include a privacy manifest file in your application as per Apple’s privacy policy.

Note

For information on creating a privacy manifest file to include in your application, refer to Apple’s privacy manifest policy requirements.

The PrivacyInfo.xcprivacy manifest file outlines the required information, ensuring transparency in accordance with user privacy practices. This file lists the types of data that your Unity applications, third-party SDKs, packages, and plug-ins collect, and the reasons for using certain required reason API (Apple documentation) categories. Apple also requires that certain domains be declared as tracking (Apple documentation); these domains might be blocked unless a user provides consent.

Warning

If your privacy manifest doesn’t declare the use of the required reason API by you or third-party SDKs, the App Store might reject your application. Read more about the required reason API in Apple’s documentation.

The privacy manifest for Cloud Save is available from version 3.2.0.

PrivacyInfo.xcprivacy

The following code sample contains the PrivacyInfo.xcprivacy manifest for Cloud Save. This file is also available in the SDK. To identify the data that this SDK collects and the purpose for collecting it, refer to the following keys:
