What is Android Device Policy?

Android Device Policy is a built-in device policy controller enabling IT administrators to directly manage Android devices via enterprise mobility management (EMM) providers that use the Android Management API.

In addition to configuring the work profile or fully managed device, Android Device Policy also provides employees visibility into the policies enforced by IT admins, and helps users resolve any policy requirements that require employee interaction, like setting a password or updating to the latest Android version.

To provide IT administrators with effective management and troubleshooting tools, Android Device Policy collects certain information from your device. What information is collected and how it is shared with you IT administrator depends on the management set configured on your device, as well as whether you or your organization owns the device.
 


Regardless of which management set you use, Android Device Policy also collects crash diagnostics, temporary remote session-level logs, and other performance data about the Android Device Policy app for aggregated analytics and troubleshooting purposes.
