How do I localise my message when gathering consent with Google Founding Choices for GDPR in the EEA?


In order to be GDPR compliant and work with Admob mediation (in Europe), I need to implement a consent management platform (CMP) in my mobile apps (iOS and Android).

Here is the complete list of TCF/IAB compliant CPMs: https://iabeurope.eu/cmp-list/. According to me, Google Founding Choices seems to be a good solution. Reason? It's free.

After playing a bit with the new Founding Choices console, it seems that it is possible to create messages in different languages and to trigger them in the app to collect user consent, which is good. Nevertheless, only one message can be active at the time (!?)

As you can see on the image below (this is screenshot of my Google Funding Choices console), I duplicated the message in 3 different languages but only one can be active at the time, so I do not understand...

If you have any clue on how to localise the message based on the locale of the user device, it would be helpful :-)

Thanks!


Solution

  • Since December 2020, it is possible to localise a message with Funding Choices. An update of the SDK may be needed, but that functionality in now available.
