 This API itself will not protect your user data; rather, it is a mechanism to allow you to do so. Native apps will need to set [Access Control Constants](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/security/secaccesscontrolcreateflags?language=objc) like [`kSecAccessControlUserPresence`](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/security/secaccesscontrolcreateflags/ksecaccesscontroluserpresence?language=objc) on their keychain entry so that reading it would auto-prompt for Touch ID biometric consent. This could be done with [`node-keytar`](https://github.com/atom/node-keytar), such that one would store an encryption key with `node-keytar` and only fetch it if `promptTouchID()` resolves.

 **Important:** In order to properly leverage this API, you [must set](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/avfoundation/cameras_and_media_capture/requesting_authorization_for_media_capture_on_macos?language=objc) the `NSMicrophoneUsageDescription` and `NSCameraUsageDescription` strings in your app's `Info.plist` file. The values for these keys will be used to populate the permission dialogs so that the user will be properly informed as to the purpose of the permission request. See [Electron Application Distribution](../tutorial/application-distribution.md#rebranding-with-downloaded-binaries) for more information about how to set these in the context of Electron.
