Android Data Safety Guide

Google Play’s data disclosure requirements

Google Play’ Data safety section is a developer-provided disclosure for an app's data-collection, sharing, and security practices.

Use this page to help you complete the requirements for this data disclosure with respect to your usage of MetaMap’s SDKs, including whether and how our SDK handles end-user data, and any applicable configurations or invocations you can control as the app developer.

We at MetaMap aim to be as transparent as possible, but as the app developer you are responsible for your response to Google Play's Data safety section form.

Collected data

The following lists the end-user data collected by the latest version of the MetaMap SDK. The data collection falls into two classes:

  • Automatic collection
    Data collected automatically without invoking specific methods or classes in your app
  • Dashboard-configured collection
    Data collected based on your Dashboard configuration of the SDK. In many cases, the data collected by the SDK is defined by your app's dashboard configuration.

Use Android's guide about data types to help you determine which data type best describes the collected data to complete your data disclosure. In your data disclosure, make sure to also account for how your specific app shares and uses the collected data.

📘Data Encryption

All of the user data collected by the SDK is encrypted in transit using the Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol.

Data collected automatically

The MetaMap SDK collects the following data automatically.

User IDsIdentifiers that relate to an identifiable person. For example, an account ID, account number, or account name.
Device or other IDsIdentifiers that relate to an identifiable device
App interactionsInformation about how a user interacts with the SDK. For example, the number of times they visit a page, or what they click on.
Crash logsInformation related to crashes, such as the number of times the SDK has crashed or stack traces.
DiagnosticsInformation about the SDK’s performance, such as battery life, loading time, latency, framerate, or technical diagnostics.
Approximate locationApproximate location information derived from an IP address.

Data collected depending on your Dashboard configuration

Depending on how you configure the MetaMap Dashboard your app may collect end-user data that needs to be included in your data disclosure. The following table lists end-user data that can be collected. Make sure to account for any data collected for your specific usage.
