New privacy measures, such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), establish guidelines for how site owners inform visitors of the tracking services they use. For this reason, the Hub team is releasing new settings on Tuesday April 1st, 2021 designed to help you follow policy regulations around tracking and consent when using Hub Activity Tracking and/or your own provider tracking. These updates include the following:
A consent notice
A consent notice allows visitors to accept or reject any Hub Activity Tracking and/or Google Analytics tracking used on a site. This consent notice will not appear to visitors upon arrival unless you enable it in your site’s settings. The notice will always be available to visitors so that they can review or modify their selection by clicking the Manage Privacy link in the new product footer.
Copy is provided for sites using Hub Activity Tracking and includes a link to the Esri Privacy Statement. You can optionally add your own disclaimer text and privacy policy link to the notice. If the site doesn't use any tracking, the notice informs visitors that they're not being tracked. By default, the consent notice adopts your site’s theme, but you can change its styling to black and white.
