Step 3: Import the DT Exchange SDK and adapter
Integration through pub.dev
Add the following dependency with the latest versions of the
DT Exchange SDK and adapter in your package's
pubspec.yaml
file:
dependencies:
gma_mediation_dtexchange: ^1.0.0
Manual Integration
Download the latest version of Google Mobile Ads mediation plugin for
DT Exchange,
extract the downloaded file, and add the extracted plugin folder
(and its contents) to your Flutter project. Then, reference the plugin in your
pubspec.yaml
file by adding the following dependency:
dependencies:
gma_mediation_dtexchange:
path: path/to/local/package
Step 4: Implement privacy settings on DT Exchange SDK
EU Consent and GDPR
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 DT Exchange does not support passing consent information to the DT Exchange SDK.
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 DT Exchange does not support passing consent information to the DT Exchange SDK.
Step 5: Add required code
Android
No additional code is required for DT Exchange integration.
iOS
SKAdNetwork integration
Follow DT Exchange's
documentation
to add the SKAdNetwork identifiers to your project's Info.plist
file.
