Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
Posted May 13, 20204 yr Hello, I feel we should revisit the platform’s compliance with GDPR, in light of the latest developments and clarifications issued by the EU. Had some discussions, read a lot about this and it's clear to me that the classic Cookie strip with one button (I accept) simply doesn't cut it anymore and would make the website owner liable for not fully following the current regulations. It's been brought to my attention from the ad network we use, that we should provide a full Consent message to every visitor of our site, and give them the option to choose which cookies, if any, they would want to be used during their visit. There are already many services out there like Cookiebot, Quantcast and OneTrust which can scan one’s site and automate the process by creating this banner. Of course even if they have limited free packages, my main concern is that there are limitations to styling, speed, translation, etc. I feel that such features must be provided from the platform itself, which must integrate the IAB Consent Framework. A valid cookie consent banner has to look like the one Cookiebot provides, offering the ability to choose the type of cookies the visitor wants. If you’d like to see a live example, visit this page. Cookiebot Consent Banner analytic view Two links from the Cookiebot site, which I really feel that they offer a full picture of what is the proper way to have a GDPR Consent banner in your site. GDPR and cookies | GDPR cookie consent | Is my use of cookies compliant? Active consent and the case of Planet49 | CJEU | GDPR & ePR I’d very much like to read your thoughts on this and particularly whether such options are included in the roadmap.
August 17, 20213 yr I'm just in the process of implementing iubenda's consent management platform, and there's no way that most software providers could integrate the same technology in to their existing products. The needs, options and flexbility of implementing these differently depending on rapidly changing laws/regulations and users locations make this a massive challenge for companies which actually specialise in this. What I would like to see from IPB though is integration with third party CMPs, most CMPs these days abide by the same standard https://iabeurope.eu/tcf-2-0/ which makes integration straight forward. IPB would just need to allow it's existing consent to take call backs from the CMP. Another question I do have is what cookies are strictly fuctional from IPB and what are experience enhancing. IPB have stated that all their cookies are able to be exempted under functional cookies, but from what I've read many may not be. For example a cookie which sets what has been read. This isn't a strictly necessary cookie, as you don't need this cookie to operate the board. I'd like to see a page in the admin dashboard which shows all cookies that IPB or third party plugins set and list the useage purpose e.g. Strictly necessary, basic interactions & functionality, experience-enhancement measurement.
April 26, 20223 yr I am also doing some more research on this topic as I experienced that more and more websites show now cookie banners that are going well beyond the simple "Yes, I accept" button. How did you eventually implement a compliant solution? Did you use an external provider as listed above? Are there any free, open source banners that work well with Invision Community?

When I searched, free solutions had a ridiculous limit per pageviews so we had to implement our own solution.
May 20, 20231 yr Hello! what solution did you implement, can you recommend something? some years ago 2019 I had a specialist set me up with GTM google tag manager and have a cookie with some variables setup, that lead to onetrust? but now, I think his is not relevant anymore, the person is not available anymore for an update, and I want to combine. two networks and their consent prerequisites plus adsense. I have seen adsense has an option too, to enable it if you are only running adsense. But, for me to optimize revenue I will run 3 ad networks/scripts. This seems to generate better outcome, and also I am running them not anymore via GAM, which was causing problems. So, i actually If I am not using GAM, I wont be needing the GTM tags or tag manager.. But then i will need an alternative to combine all consent options to comply with gdpr, I cant have 3 cookie bar windows for consent...... What alternatives /solutions have you used when you combine the scripts of more than just adsense network, for revenue?

Yo, we built something custom but if you use cloudflare, they have a new free related service https://blog.cloudflare.com/consent-manager/
May 21, 20231 yr ah! really? yes I do use cloudflare. I will check it out thank you! it seems pretty easy, I wonder how it will look like. will report back on that!
May 21, 20231 yr I took a look, think I am underqualified to set it up reliably, am no developer just owner... I guess the networks that are not listed need to be added manually, and then it gets more compicated I guess. The ones that exist , are easy, like GA4... but what If I miss something and select something wrong... The css and visual part I might have already from the previous setup at GTM, but the technical stuff with all the triggers and variables... I am clueless , and I dont have the time at all to learn it... I wonder If there is someone there that I could give me a quote to set it up for me ? what is the html I will need to ad for those ad networks scripts on my global template that are not already listed ?..Its too much things I have no clue about..

It looks really interesting and I ofcourse trust the Germans a lot with their strict policies so I will definitely take a detailed look! I am looking for someone to set this up for me, with some quote that I hope is not too high... I will post a topic about it.

CCM19 offers an integration service to set things up, if you decide to use the cloud option. I used this option. It was a one-time fee (you can PM me for details).
June 20, 20231 yr ok I posted this too just in case there is someone here, and I will go and check this out too! thank you!
