GDPR youtube event tracking
-
Hi PixelYourSite-Team,
by activating the option “Watch Video (YouTube and Vimeo embedded videos)” PixelYourSite creates a connection to youtube.com, where at least the users IP address is transferred to a third party company.
Which could be a problem with the GDPR where IP addresses are private data.Therefore I disabled this event on my customers website.
pixelyoursite-pro/dist/scripts/public.js:752
if (typeof window.YT === 'undefined') { var tag = document.createElement('script'); tag.src = '//www.youtube.com/iframe_api'; var firstScriptTag = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0]; firstScriptTag.parentNode.insertBefore(tag, firstScriptTag); }
I am using the plugin Borlabs Cookie to control third party connections.
It works well with Facebook, Google Analytic and Pinterest, but I cant make this function only run after the users has given consent.Is there some simple js function to enable video tracking (after the visitor has accepted tracking)?
Thank you. ??
