How to ensure GDPR compliance

How to ensure GDPR compliance

Compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is important for anybody who handles the data of EU citizens. Here, we'll outline how to use consent management tools to make sure your websites comply with GDPR (CMPs).


Installing and configuring one of the consent management platforms (CMP) on your website is the first step (s).

The goal of CMP is to obtain, store, and transmit visitor consents to an ad server.

Any CMPs that comply with the IAB Transparency and Consent Framework's technical requirements may be used (TCF v2).

You may use Cookiebot.

You must include CMP platform JS code to your website's HEAD section to install it.

In the CMP panel, you must acquire your own script. This script is only an illustration of how a Cookiebot script may seem.

<script id="Cookiebot" src="https://consent.cookiebot.com/uc.js" data-cbid="xxx" data-framework="IAB" type="text/javascript" async></script>


You may also need to install this script to the HEAD section if the CMP platform does not come with an IAB stub by default (see the CMP platform documentation for details).


On the page, the stub script should run before any of our scripts.

Visitors will then see a permission dialogue like this.


Typically, the CMP platform provides for virtually complete look customization.

The ad server will request permission from CMP and modify its behaviour as a result.
