Cookie Policy Management in Map Embeds

Updated: Jill Bobrick Edited:

Streamlining Map Embeds with Advanced Cookie Policy Management

This feature designed to facilitate a more integrated and user-friendly experience when embedding Interactive Map into your website, especially for those that operate under specific cookie policies.

We provide a combination of parameters that allows you to manage the visibility of the cookie policy notice. 

Integration with your Cookie Policy

Customers must ensure that their cookie policies encompass all aspects covered by the Concept3D cookie policy. This includes notifying users about the use of cookies and obtaining the necessary consents. By doing so, you can maintain transparency and compliance while using our map platform.

 

Using the Query Parameter

The query parameter, ?cph, can be added to your map's URL to hide the cookie policy notice. However, it's crucial to accompany this parameter with a consent setting to ensure proper compliance and functionality. Without specifying the consent setting, the default behavior will be to deny consent, which may restrict certain tracking functionalities within the map.

 

Consent Setting Options

To add consent settings to the embed, add &gtagConsent=[consent setting] to the url after ?cph.

There are three consent setting options available, each catering to different requirements:

  • granted: This option indicates that the user has consented to the use of cookies, allowing for full tracking capabilities within the map.
  • denied: Selecting this option signifies that the user has not consented to cookies, limiting the tracking functionalities.
  • necessary: This setting permits only the cookies that are essential for the map's functionality, without enabling additional tracking features.

NOTE: If no consent is provided, the map will default to denied consent.

 

Example URLs with the cookie policy parameter:

  • Consent Granted: https://map.concept3d.com/?id=[mapID]&cph&gtagConsent=granted#!
  • Consent Denied: https://map.concept3d.com/?id=[mapID]&cph&gtagConsent=denied#!
  • Consent Necessary: https://map.concept3d.com/?id=[mapID]&cph&gtagConsent=necessary#!

Ensuring Compliance

It's important to ensure that you are appropriately conveying the consent provided by your users when utilizing the ?cph, parameter. This not only aids in maintaining compliance with various privacy regulations but also respects the preferences of your users.
