In need of guidance. I am your typical store. I sell products within the continental USA. I collect the basic information of name, email, address, payment processing etc.
What cookies and/or laws/policies do I need?? I know that there’s like CCPA. GDPR, among others.
If you have customers from the EU, EEA, UK, and Switzerland, then you need to comply with GDPR. The California Consumer Protection Act (CCPA) and California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA) are “extraterritorial”, which means that these laws protect residents of California. Also, beginning in January 2023, covered businesses in Virginia will have new compliance obligations under the Virginia Consumer Data Protection Act (CDPA) in response to the new privacy rights granted to residents of the Commonwealth. Of course, there are other data regulations for other countries, like LGPD for Brazil, etc. We have a dedicated page for all of them here.
Based on the above information, you need an app that will provide you with the proper tools to make your store compliant with these laws.
We offer the app Pandectes GDPR Compliance which covers all these laws. The cookies are a tracking technology that needs to be found on your store and presented to your visitors in order to let them know which of them you use on your store and what their purpose is. Our application can scan your store, find them, categorize them, and provide their purpose. All you need to do is just to review the scan report and maybe take care of any unclassified cookies. Then the banner that will be visible to your visitors will provide this information either there or by navigating them to your policy page. Finally, our application offers you a list of these cookies in order to use them on your policy page.
If you need more information, please let me know.
