Prepare for Google Play's data disclosure requirements

Review MoEngage Android SDK data collection details to complete Google Play’s Data Safety disclosure.

In May 2021, Google Play announced the new Data safety section, which is a developer-provided disclosure for an app’s data collection, sharing, and security practices.

This page can help you complete the requirements for this data disclosure in regards to your usage of the MoEngage Android SDK. On this page, you can find information on whether and how our SDK handles end-user data, including any applicable settings or configurations you can control as the application developer.

We aim to be as transparent as possible in supporting you; however, as the application developer, you are solely responsible for deciding how to respond to Google Play’s Data safety section form regarding your app’s end-user data collection, sharing, and security practices.

How to use the information on this page?

This page lists the end-user data collected only from version 12.2.01 of the MoEngage Android SDK.

If you are using a prior version of the MoEngage Android SDK, could you update to the latest version to ensure your app’s disclosures are accurate? The MoEngage Android SDK will continue to be updated over time. This article will reflect these changes, so update your disclosures as necessary.
