Add AdColony to GDPR and US state regulations ad partners list

按照 GDPR 设置美国州级法规设置 中的步骤,将 AdColony 添加到 AdMob 界面中的 GDPR 和美国州级法规广告合作伙伴列表中。

Step 3: Import the AdColony SDK and adapter

Download the latest version of Google Mobile Ads mediation plugin for AdColony from the download link in the Changelog and extract the GoogleMobileAdsAdColonyMediation.unitypackage from the zip file.

In your Unity project editor, select Assets > Import Package > Custom Package and find the GoogleMobileAdsAdColonyMediation.unitypackage file you downloaded. Make sure all the files are selected and click Import.

Then, select Assets > Play Services Resolver > Android Resolver > Force Resolve. The External Dependency Manager library will perform dependency resolution from scratch and copy the declared dependencies into the Assets/Plugins/Android directory of your Unity app.

Step 4: Implement privacy settings on AdColony SDK

Under the Google EU User Consent Policy, you must ensure that certain disclosures are given to, and consents obtained from, users in the European Economic Area (EEA) regarding the use of device identifiers and personal data. This policy reflects the requirements of the EU ePrivacy Directive and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). When seeking consent, you must identify each ad network in your mediation chain that may collect, receive, or use personal data and provide information about each network's use. Google currently is unable to pass the user's consent choice to such networks automatically.

The Google Mobile Ads mediation plugin for AdColony version 2.6.1 added the AdColonyAppOptions class with the SetPrivacyFrameworkRequired() and SetPrivacyConsentString() methods, to let you to pass consent to the AdColony SDK. The following sample code demonstrates how to pass consent information to the AdColony adapter, which are then used in AdColony’s initialization method. These options must be set before you initialize the Google Mobile Ads SDK to ensure they get forwarded properly to AdColony's SDK.

using GoogleMobileAds.Api.Mediation.AdColony;
// ...

AdColonyAppOptions.SetPrivacyFrameworkRequired(AdColonyPrivacyFramework.GDPR, true);
AdColonyAppOptions.SetPrivacyConsentString(AdColonyPrivacyFramework.GDPR, "myPrivacyConsentString");

See AdColony's Consumer Privacy article and Privacy Laws implementation guide for more details and the values that can be provided in the method.

US states privacy laws

U.S. states privacy laws require giving users the right to opt out of the "sale" of their "personal information" (as the law defines those terms), with the opt-out offered via a prominent "Do Not Sell My Personal Information" link on the "selling" party's homepage. The U.S. states privacy laws compliance guide offers the ability to enable restricted data processing for Google ad serving, but Google is unable to apply this setting to each ad network in your mediation chain. Therefore, you must identify each ad network in your mediation chain that may participate in the sale of personal information and follow guidance from each of those networks to ensure compliance.

The Google Mobile Ads mediation plugin for AdColony version 2.6.1 added the AdColonyAppOptions class with the SetPrivacyFrameworkRequired() and SetPrivacyConsentString() methods, to let you to pass consent to the AdColony SDK. The following sample code demonstrates how to pass consent information to the AdColony adapter, which are then used in AdColony's initialization method. These options must be set before you initialize the Google Mobile Ads SDK to ensure they get forwarded properly to AdColony's SDK.

using GoogleMobileAds.Api.Mediation.AdColony;
// ...

AdColonyAppOptions.SetPrivacyFrameworkRequired(AdColonyPrivacyFramework.CCPA, true);
AdColonyAppOptions.SetPrivacyConsentString(AdColonyPrivacyFramework.CCPA, "myPrivacyConsentString");

See AdColony's Consumer Privacy article and Privacy Laws implementation guide for more details and the values that can be provided in the method.

Step 5: Add required code

Android

No additional code is required for AdColony integration.

iOS

SKAdNetwork integration

Follow AdColony's documentation to add the SKAdNetwork identifiers to your project's Info.plist file.

Step 6: Test your implementation

启用测试广告

请务必为AdMob 注册您的测试设备,并在 AdColony 界面中启用测试模式

验证测试广告

如需验证您收到的是来自AdColony的测试广告,请使用相应广告来源在广告检查器中启用单一广告来源测试AdColony (Bidding) and AdColony (Waterfall)

Optional steps

Android

Permissions

For optimal performance, AdColony recommends adding the following optional permissions into the AndroidManifest.xml file located under the Assets/Plugins/Android/GoogleMobileAdsPlugin directory of your Unity project.

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.VIBRATE" />

iOS

No additional steps are required for iOS integration.

Network-specific parameters

The AdColony mediation package supports additional configuration and request parameters, which can be passed to the adapter using the AdColonyMediationExtras and AdColonyAppOptions classes.

The AdColonyMediationExtras class includes the following methods:

SetShowPrePopup(bool)
Sets whether or not to show a popup before showing an ad. Set to false if you don't want to show a popup before ads display.
SetShowPostPopup(bool)
Sets whether or not to show a popup after showing an ad. Set to false if you don't want to show a popup after ads display.

The AdColonyAppOptions class includes the following methods:

SetUserId(string)
Sets the User ID for the AdColony SDK that provides further analytics to the AdColony Ad Server.
SetTestMode(bool)
Sets whether or not to enable test mode for the AdColony SDK.

Here's a code example of how to set these configurations and ad request parameters:

// Set app-level configurations
AdColonyAppOptions.SetUserId("myUser");
AdColonyAppOptions.SetTestMode(true);

// Set ad request parameters
AdColonyMediationExtras extras = new AdColonyMediationExtras();
extras.SetShowPrePopup(true);
extras.SetShowPostPopup(true);

AdRequest request = new AdRequest.Builder()
        .AddMediationExtras(extras)
        .Build();

Error codes

If the adapter fails to receive an ad from AdColony, publishers can check the underlying error from the ad response using ResponseInfo under the following classes:
