Privacy policy of Apple: Add the PrivacyInfo.xcprivacy file to ApsaraVideo MediaBox SDK for protocol authentication

Background information

According to Apple's privacy policy update for App Store submissions, apps submitted to App Store since March 2024 must include a privacy manifest.

When you submit your app, Xcode generates a privacy report that aggregates the privacy manifest files of all third-party SDKs in your app. This report produces accurate privacy labels. Therefore, SDKs and third-party libraries must include the PrivacyInfo.xcprivacy file.

Add the PrivacyInfo.xcprivacy file to ApsaraVideo MediaBox SDK

By default, ApsaraVideo MediaBox SDK V6.10.0 or later contains the PrivacyInfo.xcprivacy file.

If you integrate the SDK by using CocoaPods, the PrivacyInfo.xcprivacy file is automatically added to your project. No additional operations are required.
If you manually integrate the SDK, you must copy the PrivacyInfo.xcprivacy file in the source code directory to your project.
