Apple privacy manifest
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.
Important: 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.
Note:
- In some jurisdictions, voice data may be considered biometric data.
- Device ID (IDFV) is only collected if using an unsupported version of the Vivox SDK.
- Other diagnostic data refers to analytics data based on an algorithm driven by a hash of the User or Device ID iOS API call.
- Other data types refers to in-app voice and text communication.
The Unity engine and Vivox's build process will take care of adding the privacy manifest to your Xcode project for iOS and visionOS builds. For macOS, you must include the file in your project before posting your app to the App Store. You can find the PrivacyInfo.xcprivacy in your Unity project under Packages > Vivox > Plugins > x86_64 > PrivacyInfo.xcprivacy.
For more information on Privacy manifest files when developing a Unity game, refer to this page of the official Unity forums.
