Privacy policy of Apple: Add the PrivacyInfo.xcprivacy file to ApsaraVideo MediaBox SDK - Apsara Video SDK

Background information

According to the update on the privacy policy for app submission to App Store announced by Apple, a privacy manifest must be added to an app that you want to submit to App Store since March, 2024.

When your app is submitted to App Store, you can use Xcode to create a user-friendly privacy report that integrates the privacy manifest files of third-party SDKs used for the app. This helps create privacy labels in an accurate manner. Therefore, SDKs and third-party libraries must contain 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.
