# IDFA Control

Applicaster offers restricted versions of its integrations that prevent any exchange of the Identifier for Advertisers (IDFA).
This is particularly useful for sensitive territories, content, and demographics — like children.

To support this, we’ve introduced a new **IDFA and Advertising ID Management** plugin.

**Key Points**

- Stores the IDFA in session storage.

- Helps apps (especially kids' apps) comply with App Store guidelines by allowing IDFA usage to be optional.

- On iOS, the plugin enables controlled collection of IDFA and supports a custom description for the ATT prompt.

- On Android, it enables or explicitly blocks advertising ID collection — preventing unintended behavior by third-party SDKs (e.g., Firebase, analytics).
