The Idea is great, but guys you are not helping marketers to pick your product. What do we all want? Paste the code and damage our site as little as possible. Nobody want giant popup and additional widget in the corner of their website. So as minimal as possible widget, or may be as effective as possible so user accept + clear workarounds and instructions how to turn off widgets in Tag manager dynamically.

Thanks @vladkorobov - I agree, and not only the marketers, probably also some users might prefer smaller buttons and not to sacrifice the usability. That's why we offer two versions of our product - one is the button. The other is a tiny clip on the bottom of the site and it has "Cookie preferences" written on. When you open it, it opens a pop up modal. We have both versions live on usercentrics.com. BUT, we have of course tested the Button and its acceptance was really good! We currently have customers doing A/B testing with white-labeled Buttons, which show even higher opt-in rates, so I think in the future we might see new marketing fields called "opt-in optimization" or "opt-in analytics" and marketers will become creative when it comes to what they are actually offering to the user in return for his data.

@vladkorobov half agreed here - we are not "just a widget" but our vision is to be a Clearing House for Consents. A neutral party where every stakeholder of the Consent chain can access the Consent at any time. Our real offering for the website operator here is the legally safe documentation of the consent for 6 years. Through logging what's displayed in the Button and logging all URL Calls from the Website, we enable the website operator to prove that no data was processed without obtaining the users Consent. We also give the website visitors a unique id for every Consent they give which they can transparently review in our public data base for the next 6 years. Btw, our smallest subscription starts at exactly 5,49€/Month 😇 Pricing depends on the traffic.

I'm sorry for the candour, but your UI is horrible! I'd never use that on my website. The information is great, but the design is bad. Take a page from the likes of Cookie Consent, Cookiebot, etc. Good luck!

@thiagoafram appreciate your opinion! Luckily design is a question of individual taste. We picked on the Google Material Design UI/UX, so I am curious what exactly you think is so bad and why e.g. Cookiebot, that looks rather static and not really like a pop up should feel like in the year 2018 destroying the complete CI of a website you think is so much better? :)

@lisagradow Google Material Design has nothing to do with what I'm saying here, my bad if I wasn't clear. I'm talking about the experience itself for the user. There are way too many things going on in the warning. Do you really need 5 (FIVE!) calls-to-action there? 1) Thumbprint: Users have no idea what's it for unless they clicked on it. I would never click on it (just did for the purpose of this chat) 2) More info: Could easily be a hyperlink on your main text (which by the way is way too long and unnecessary - you could have most of this info 'after' you click to see more) 3) Accept button: From a UI perspective, you don't need those buttons to be so large, small ones would do. 3b) Timer (?): As a user, what does it mean if the timer expired? Did I accept? Did I deny? Oh my gosh, my time is up! What now? (See where I'm going?) 4) Deny: Again, could be smaller, or you don't even really need it if you have a 'close (X)' button. 5) Consent settings: Exactly the same functionality as the thumbprint (as far as I could understand as a user). So why do you need to repeat it? When you open it on mobile, it takes almost 90% of the screen. Google punish ranks for ANYTHING that goes over the content (popups, warnings, etc).

@thiagoafram I just went to a very detailed talk on GDPR data compliance and the reason there are five things in this popup is the same reason there are four options plus a more info link on the Cookiebot version you recommended - COMPLIANCE... If you don't get explicit approval from a user under GDPR regs then you're in violation. So in short your UX criticism is basically directed at the wrong person send it to the EU Parliament. Its because of them that we have to add all this rubbish to a User Interface. @lisagradow I think your team have done a great job here and I for one would use your script.

@lisagradow @apachesenzala Sorry Jamie, my criticism is not towards the content, but the UI/UX - and that has nothing to do with the EU Parliament. As I said, cookiebot, cookie consent and others are doing the THE SAME job getting explicit approval but in a more graceful way. I'm talking about aesthetics. A Ferrari can take you from point A to B, and so can a horse. Anyway, my comment was solely constructive and everyone's entitled to their opinion. For that reason I'd rather use any of the other alternatives.

As entrepreneurs, we felt the heavy weight that GDPR is putting on businesses’ shoulders. At the same time, as users we were excited for a new privacy age. Therefore, our goal was to build a solution that serves both businesses and users making privacy a feasible reality. We believe, our Privacy Button enables businesses to fulfill GDPR requirements on their Website with regard to Cookies & Co: informing the user, asking for his consent, enabling an easy opt-out and documenting the consent history. It’s quickly implemented with a small JavaScript Code Snippet into any Website. For users, it’s intuitive, discreet but clearly visible, offering full transparency and real freedom of choice. We would love to hear your feedback - both from a users and a business perspective! ;)

@lisagradow Is there a way to have this widget only show to Euro visitors? From what I understand GDPR is for EU visitors.

@lisagradow would be cool if you could build this into intercoms new App Store. Bet it would take off like wildfire...

Where is the consent stored? Does this integrate with my own database?

@mickc79 thx for the question - we store the consent within our infrastructure hosted in Germany, but you can choose to host in on your own infrastructure as well. If stored by us, you can access the consents through a real-time API.

@lisagradow that’s good. I think any company would need to be insane to store their GDPR data on another conpany’s infrastructure. Imagine I have 15000 customer data records on YOUR systems. What happens to me if/when you go bust? Happy to hear I can store my own data.
