Do I need to use User Tracking if I use Admob?

I added the App Tracking Transparency dialog in my code to ask users if they allow tracking. My app was rejected in the App Store Connect -

Your app contains NSUserTrackingUsageDescription, indicating that you will request permission to track users.

But now I'm not sure if I really need to use tracking? I simply use Admob to show ads, and have only one app, so I don't need to collect data?

I have no idea what type of ads Admob shows the users (personalized/not personalized) I assumed that everyone who uses Admob should show that User Tracking permission for ios14+, but do I really? Why do I need to collect data?

no you don't need NSUserTrackingUsageDescription if you use Admob. you can use this permission like if you want to get advertising id of the device.

and remember to delete NSUserTrackingUsageDescription from info.plist if you don't use it so your app don't get rejected.

also if you used this permission remember to change the privacy of the app on apple store, go to app privacy and in data types section click edit and select Identifiers (Device ID) and set this one as used for tracking purposes. and make sure that this is the only one selected as used for tracking.
