Samtyk CMP

Description

Samtyk CMP connects a WordPress website to the hosted Samtyk consent management service.

The plugin can:

• Load the Samtyk consent banner on the public website.
• Use the WordPress site language automatically or use a selected language.
• Add Google Consent Mode v2 defaults before Google Tag Manager loads.
• Load an optional Google Tag Manager container.
• Hold back supported WooCommerce, Jetpack, Mailchimp, and Instagram scripts until the required consent is available.
• Replace supported YouTube, Vimeo, Spotify, Issuu, and Instagram embeds with consent placeholders.
• Convert and manage custom scripts and embeds with consent categories, placement, and page targeting.

An active Samtyk account with the website domain added is required. Service plans and prices are available at https://samtyk.com/priser.

This plugin provides technical consent-management tools. Website owners remain responsible for configuring the service and their website according to the laws and requirements that apply to them.

External services

This plugin relies on the hosted Samtyk service to provide the consent banner, domain configuration, language-specific content, and consent logging. The service is operated by CTWeb / Samtyk.

The connection is disabled by default. When a website administrator enables Samtyk, the public website loads JavaScript from https://consent.samtyk.com/. That script contacts https://consentapi.samtyk.com/ to resolve the configuration for the current domain and to register consent choices.

Depending on the request and enabled Samtyk features, transmitted information can include the website hostname and URL, site identifier, selected language, browser user agent, consent identifier, consent categories, consent selection type, policy and configuration versions, and technical runtime or bundle identifiers. The visitor’s IP address is also visible to the service as part of the network request.

The service is subject to the following documents:

• Terms: https://samtyk.com/betingelser
• Privacy policy: https://samtyk.com/privatlivspolitik
• Subprocessors: https://samtyk.com/underdatabehandlere

If the website administrator enables Google Tag Manager and enters a valid container ID, the plugin loads that container from https://www.googletagmanager.com/ on public pages. The request can disclose the visitor’s IP address, browser user agent, referring page, requested page URL, and the configured Google Tag Manager container ID to Google. Google Tag Manager then executes the tags configured by the website administrator. Those tags may transmit additional data to Google or other third parties, depending entirely on the container configuration.

Google Tag Manager is provided by Google LLC:

• Terms of service: https://www.google.com/analytics/terms/tag-manager/
• Privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy

Supported third-party embeds are loaded from their respective providers only after the visitor gives the consent required by the configured integration.

Privacy

The plugin stores its configuration in the WordPress options table and managed scripts or embeds as private WordPress content records. Visitor consent is stored in the visitor’s browser and, when Samtyk is enabled, consent information can be sent to the hosted Samtyk service as described in the External services section.

The plugin does not contact Samtyk while the integration is disabled. Administrators should describe their specific Samtyk configuration and any enabled third-party services in the website’s own privacy and cookie information.
