Instead of being forced to ask users for permission to track them outside of Google's domains, the company will simply stop using iOS tracking ID.

Google has not updated its iOS apps since December, when the new rules on the collection of personal data and other data came into force. The company has previously only said that updates are underway, but now reveals more about the plans and what it will do when Apple's even tougher rules on tracking are introduced this spring, reports 9 to 5 Mac .

Apps that track users outside the developer's own domains, on other websites and in other apps, will have to ask the user for permission and if they say no, they will have to agree to show general targeted advertising.

Google does not intend to show any such issues but instead chooses to completely stop using the so-called IDFA code (Identifier For Advertisers) that iOS developers can use to recognize a particular device.

Unlike some other companies, Google has many other ways to track users, and those who are logged in to their Google account in one of the apps and also, for example, in browsers on a computer can still be tracked.

Google will also soon start updating its apps and will then start showing privacy declarations in accordance with the App Store rules.
