Apple iOS Privacy Update and App Tracking Permissions
Apple has introduced additional privacy controls in iOS through its App Tracking Transparency (ATT) framework. These changes give iPhone and iPad users more control over how apps collect and share data across other apps and websites.
What Has Changed?
With Apple’s privacy update, apps must ask for your permission before tracking your activity across apps and websites owned by other companies.
When you open an app that uses tracking technologies, you may see a prompt asking whether you would like to allow tracking.
How Does This Affect Kijiji?
You can continue to use the Kijiji iOS app whether you choose to allow tracking or not.
If you choose to allow tracking:
- You may receive more personalized advertisements based on your interests and activity.
- Advertisements shown within Kijiji may be more relevant to you.
- Your experience with advertising content may be improved.
If you choose not to allow tracking:
- You can still access and use all core Kijiji features.
- You may see less personalized advertisements.
- Your privacy preferences will be respected according to Apple’s settings and Kijiji’s privacy practices.
