In the ever-evolving landscape of online privacy regulations, ensuring compliance can be a daunting task for website owners. Fortunately, vsble Website Builder has taken steps to simplify this process by including a built-in Cookie Consent banner and a default cookie policy page. This means that your website is GDPR compliant by default, helping you establish a strong foundation for privacy compliance.
The built-in Cookie Consent banner provided by vsble Website Builder offers a seamless way to inform your website visitors about the use of cookies and obtain their consent. It allows you to communicate your commitment to privacy and data protection while giving users control over their cookie preferences.
The default cookie policy page lists the cookies used by your website, providing transparency to your visitors about the types of cookies employed and their purposes. This default policy ensures that your website meets the essential requirements of GDPR compliance.
However, should you wish to customize the appearance of the cookie banner or integrate different extensions, you may want to consider using a custom cookie solution. Custom solutions offer flexibility in terms of design and functionality and often come with additional features. They can automatically update your cookie policy page with the cookies used by the extensions you install, ensuring accurate and up-to-date information.
Moreover, many custom cookie solutions offer advanced tracking capabilities. They monitor your website for new tools and technologies and automatically create and update not only your cookie policy page but also your privacy policy page in accordance with the latest regulations. This ensures that you stay compliant with changing privacy laws and maintain transparency with your users.
To install a custom cookie consent solution and privacy policy, follow these steps:
Disable the default cookie banner provided by vsble Website Builder. This will also remove the default cookie policy page.
Install your preferred custom cookie solution by using the custom integrations feature provided by the solution. Follow the instructions provided by the respective tool, which typically involve adding specific cookie codes to the header and/or footer of your website.
Here is an example of a custom cookie solution:
