Consentmo Integrates with GPC Signals to Empower Your Customers Choices

In a digital ecosystem where privacy is crucial, Consentmo continues to lead the way in empowering Shopify store owners and their customers with robust data privacy management tools. We're excited to announce that Consentmo has now integrated with the Global Privacy Control (GPC), marking a significant step in simplifying privacy preferences across the web.

🌐 Understanding GPC Signals

Global Privacy Control (GPC) is an innovative initiative that represents a big leap in online privacy, enabling users to set their privacy preferences across multiple platforms with a single command. It's a simple yet powerful tool that communicates a user's desire to limit the sale or sharing of their personal information, aligning with regulatory requirements like the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

⚖️ The Legal Relevance of GPC

The GPC signal is a testament to the evolving landscape of privacy laws, including the CCPA's mandate that businesses respect a user's decision not to sell their personal information. Similarly, under the GDPR, the GPC signal aims to empower users to restrict the transfer of their data to other controllers, honoring their rights as outlined in Articles 7 & 21. As privacy laws continue to emerge globally, GPC signals are poised to become an integral part of legal compliance.

🔗 Consentmo’s Integration with GPC Signals

Consentmo's integration with GPC is a game-changer for Shopify merchants. Found easily within the Integrations tab of our app, this new feature guarantees that your store is not only compliant but also respectful of your users’ privacy wishes. With this integration, Consentmo automatically recognizes and honors GPC signals from your customers' browsers, making the management of Do Not Sell requests simple.
