Enabling privacy policy acceptance (SQL statements)

When the store function is enabled for requesting shoppers to accept the privacy policy of a store, the Just-in-Time Privacy Notice page is added as a pop-up window to your store. The page can be displayed as a pop-up window on any store page. Each shopper that visits your store must select the check box to accept the privacy policy before the pop-up window closes and the shopper can continue to use your site.

If your site and organization need to meet the European Union (EU) General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), enable the privacy policy acceptance functionality for your custom store. Enabling this store function and updating the store to provide just-in-time privacy notice capabilities can help your organization on its journey to GDPR readiness.

You can also enable the store function for privacy policy acceptance by using the Store Management tool in Management Center. For more information, see Enabling privacy policy acceptance (Store Management tool).

Procedure

To enable the privacy policy acceptance, run the following SQL statements:


insert into emspot (emspot_id, storeent_id, name, description, usagetype, optcounter) values ($consentOpt_espotId, $storeId, 'ConsentOptions', 'ConsentOptions','STOREFEATURE',1);
insert into emspot (emspot_id, storeent_id, name, description, usagetype, optcounter) values ($mkdConset_espotId, $storeId, 'MarketingConsent', 'MarketingConsent','STOREFEATURE',1);
insert into emspot (emspot_id, storeent_id, name, description, usagetype, optcounter) values ($sesson_espotId, $storeId, 'Session', 'Session','STOREFEATURE',1);
insert into emspot (emspot_id, storeent_id, name, description, usagetype, optcounter) values ($permanent_espotId, $storeId, 'Permanent', 'Permanent','STOREFEATURE',1);

Where:

emspot_id

The unique ID of the e-Marketing Spot that is used for displaying the consent management content.

storeent_id

The store entity ID as defined in the STORE_ID column of the STORE table. Set the value to be '$storeId'

name

Indicates the store function configuration that is being inserted. Insert rows to define the following configurations:

ConsentOptions: Enable store privacy policy page acceptance.
MarketingConsent: Enable the functionality for processing shopper behavior tracking consent for marketing purposes.
Session: Temporarily remember the customer's privacy policy acceptance for the browser session. When configured, the acceptance of the privacy policy is remembered for only the shopper's current browsing session. The shopper must accept the privacy policy again whenever they revisit the store after they close and reopen the browser.
Permanent: Permanently remember the customer's decision using the browser cache. When configured, the acceptance of the privacy policy is remembered until the shopper removes the store cookie from the browser or 30 days elapse from the date that the cookie is created. After the cookie is removed, the shopper must accept the privacy policy again when they next visit the store.
