How the GDPR Compliance Setting Works in ClientPoint
When GDPR compliance is enabled in your themes, every ClientPoint you send will include a consent checkbox on the email prompt page. Before accessing the ClientPoint, the recipient must check the box to agree to data usage terms. This provides transparency and ensures you comply with EU data protection regulations.
Disabling GDPR Compliance for Non-EU Prospects
If you’re working with a prospect outside the EU, you can disable the GDPR consent prompt for individual ClientPoints. Here’s how:
-
- Go to the Info Page of your ClientPoint and locate the Recipient Viewer Options. Click here to read more.
- Toggle the Disable GDPR setting to remove the consent checkbox for that specific ClientPoint.
- Alternatively, if you want to permanently enable or disable GDPR compliance, adjust these settings within Advanced Settings for your themes. Click here to read more.
Enabling GDPR compliance in ClientPoint helps protect your clients' data privacy and keeps your business compliant with EU regulations. By following these steps, you can efficiently set up and customize GDPR prompts, and selectively disable them for non-EU clients when needed.
