What permissions are necessary for location tracking in Braze?

For location tracking using the Braze iOS SDK, it is essential to request appropriate location permissions from the user. Specifically, using the requestWhenInUseAuthorization() method allows the app to access the device's location only when the app is actively in use. This is crucial for respecting user privacy and following Apple’s guidelines regarding location services. When the app has the necessary permissions, it can leverage location data for targeted campaigns and personalized user experiences.

While having background location access may be beneficial for certain functionalities, it is not strictly necessary for location tracking in this context. Additionally, no permissions related to user contacts are relevant to location tracking and therefore would not apply. In summary, obtaining location permissions through the appropriate request method is vital for complying with privacy standards and ensuring that the app functions correctly in accessing location data.
