Liftoff(Vungle)Adapting to Privacy Changes: Our Approach to Google’s Transparency Consent Framework and Apple’s Privacy Manifest
Summary
Starting January 2024, Google mandates mobile app publishers to implement Transparency and Consent Framework 2.2 for ads in EEA and UK, requiring consent management platforms supporting Additional Consent mode. Simultaneously, Apple enforces Privacy Manifest requirements from May 2024, including declared API usage reasons and data collection categories, with potential App Store rejection for non-compliance. Liftoff Monetize provides solutions through GDPR API integration for Google compliance and SDK v7.3.1 with built-in Privacy Manifest support for Apple requirements.

AppsFlyerCross-channel marketing analytics: how it works in 2026
Cross-channel marketing analytics isn't about putting Meta, Google, and TikTok numbers side by side—they often double-count the same customer journey. Fragmented identity is the real culprit; without a first-party Customer User ID, attribution measures platform credit, not customer value. The article explains that deduplicating conversions across mobile, web, and CTV can lift attributed revenue by 30–60% and improve ROAS by 20%. It walks through attribution models, warns against platform-native analytics, and advises using an independent MMP for true cross-channel measurement. Ad ops takeaway: fix identity resolution first, because AI-driven optimization and budget allocation depend on trustworthy, deduplicated data.
