Introduction

With the CookieYes cookie banner, you can easily request customer consent for cookie usage, empowering users to accept or reject cookies—or customise their preferences. This integration ensures you remain compliant with privacy regulations while providing a transparent and user-friendly experience.


Understanding data privacy laws

Data privacy laws empower users to control their personal information and its use when visiting websites. The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) protects users in the European Union (EU), while other privacy laws, such as the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and New Zealand’s Privacy Act 2020, have been implemented for different areas.


These laws apply to any website that collects data via cookies, regardless of whether the business is physically based in the country where the law originates. 


Do I have to implement CookieYes? 

You have the flexibility to decide whether to implement a cookie management system on your IBIS E-Commerce platform. If you choose to implement one, CookieYes offers the easiest setup. Alternatively, if you prefer another solution, your web designer can install the necessary code snippet via Google Tag Manager (GTM) into your IBIS E-Commerce website.


How to implement CookieYes

  1. Sign up for a CookieYes account using the following affiliate link: CookieYes Registration
  2. In the installation instruction dialogue, select the option to install with Google Tag Manager. 
  3. Click the Copy key button from Step 2.

     
  4. In the System settings screen in IBIS, navigate to the Website section, then locate the CookieYes Key field and paste the copied key.
  5. Save your changes. 
  6. To test, open your IBIS E-Commerce website and reset the server cache by appending /cart/resetcache to the end of your URL. Return to your E-Commerce homepage, and you should see the cookie consent box appear.
