# ATTrackingManager.AuthorizationStatus

The status values for app tracking authorization.

```
enum AuthorizationStatus
```

## Overview

After a device receives an authorization request to approve access to app-related
data that can be used for tracking the user or the device, the returned value is
either:

- [`ATTrackingManager.AuthorizationStatus.authorized`](/documentation/AppTrackingTransparency/ATTrackingManager/AuthorizationStatus/authorized), or
- [`ATTrackingManager.AuthorizationStatus.denied`](/documentation/AppTrackingTransparency/ATTrackingManager/AuthorizationStatus/denied).

Before a device receives an authorization request to approve access to app-related
data that can be used for tracking the user or the device, the returned value is:
[`ATTrackingManager.AuthorizationStatus.notDetermined`](/documentation/AppTrackingTransparency/ATTrackingManager/AuthorizationStatus/notDetermined).

If authorization to use app tracking data is restricted, the value is: [`ATTrackingManager.AuthorizationStatus.restricted`](/documentation/AppTrackingTransparency/ATTrackingManager/AuthorizationStatus/restricted).
