Esquema para pacotes de metadados do app

Starting in Android 14, the Android package installer can ingest metadata about an app, such as data safety practices, for use in Android platform features such as the updated Location permission prompt.

There are two ways to provide this metadata:

  • For an app preloaded on the system image, device manufacturers can provide metadata about the app by adding an XML file to the system image with the persistable bundle described below.

  • For apps being installed or updated, To specify this metadata, app installers should pass a PersistableBundle object into the setAppMetadata() method.

The top-level persistable bundle consists of the following key/values pairs. Unless specified otherwise, each key is optional.

version (required)
The version number of the app metadata format. Use 2 as the value for this current version and long as the type. If expected keys or content types of AppMetadata change, Android will change the version number.
safety_labels
A PersistableBundle object that specifies the app's safety-labels.
system_app_safety_label
A PersistableBundle object that specifies the app's system-app-safety-label. For apps acting as a system service, the system_app_safety_label bundle is used instead of the safety_labels bundle.
transparency_info
A PersistableBundle object that specifies the app's transparency information.

Safety labels format

The safety_labels bundle contains the following key/values pairs:

version (required)
The version number of the safety labels format. Use 1 as the value for this current version and long as the type.
data_labels
A PersistableBundle object that specifies the data that the app collects and shares.
security_labels
A PersistableBundle object that specifies the app's data deletion and encryption practices.
third_party_verification
A PersistableBundle object that specifies how the app's data safety practices are verified by a third party.

Data collected and shared

The data_labels bundle contains the following key/value pairs:

data_collected
A PersistableBundle object that specifies the types of data that the app collects.
data_shared
A PersistableBundle object that specifies the types of data that the app shares.

Data categories

Both the data_collected and data_shared keys use the data_category bundle format, which contains the key/value pairs shown in the following list. Each key maps to a PersistableBundle object that specifies the data types for a particular category.

  • personal
  • financial
  • location
  • email_text_message
  • photo_video
  • audio
  • storage
  • health_fitness
  • contacts
  • calendar
  • identifiers
  • app_performance
  • actions_in_app
  • search_and_browsing

Data types

Each key in the data_category bundle maps to a different bundle that uses the data_type format. The keys that you specify in the data_type format depend on what you choose for a data_category.

The possible data_type key/value pairs appear in the following lists. The value for each of these keys is a PersistableBundle object that describes the app's data usage practices for that particular data type. Some data types use only one key.

Personal

  • name
  • email_address
  • physical_address
  • phone_number
  • race_ethnicity
  • political_or_religious_beliefs

is_collection_optional

Boolean value. Specifies whether users can opt in to, or opt out of, data collection.

Note: Set this value only for data_category bundles that represent data collection; don't set it for data sharing.

ephemeral

Boolean value. Specifies whether the app processes the data server-side only in memory, not on disk, and that the app retains the data no longer than necessary to service the specific data processing request.

Note: Set this value only for data_category bundles that represent data collection; don't set it for data sharing.

Data deletion and encryption practices

The security_labels bundle contains key/value pairs that represent the app's data deletion and encryption practices:

is_data_deletable
Boolean value. Specifies whether or not the app allows the user to request the app to delete their user data.

Third-party verification

The third_party_verification bundle consists of a single key, url. This URL, represented as a string value, specifies the third-party website used for verifying the app's data safety information.

System service safety labels format

For apps acting as a system service, the system_app_safety_label bundle is used instead of the safety_labels bundle and contains the following key/values pairs:
