Understanding GPC requirements

Navigate the evolving landscape of universal opt-out mechanisms

Regulatory implementation

Privacy laws in states like California and Colorado now recognize GPC signals as valid opt-out requests for data selling and sharing.

User adoption growth

Millions of users are activating GPC through major browsers and extensions, increasing the importance of proper implementation.

Technical detection

Organizations need reliable systems to detect GPC signals and apply appropriate privacy controls automatically.

Cross-jurisdictional variation

GPC implementation requirements differ across privacy regulations, creating challenges for consistent application.

Intelligent signal processing

From browser signals to automated privacy controls

Key capabilities

Our solution provides comprehensive handling of GPC signals with automatic implementation of appropriate privacy controls.

Reliably identify GPC signals from all major browsers and extensions without configuration requirements.

Apply GPC signals appropriately based on applicable privacy regulations in the user's location.

Process GPC signals within the same consent framework as your explicit opt-out mechanisms.

Optionally allow users to override their browser's GPC signal if they wish to provide different consent choices.

Implementation approach

Our GPC implementation creates a structured framework for honoring user privacy preferences:

Automatically identify GPC headers and browser settings without manual configuration.

Apply appropriate opt-out actions based on user jurisdiction and applicable regulations.

Automatically block data selling, sharing, and targeted advertising for users with active GPC signals.

Optionally enable user control to modify preferences beyond their browser's GPC signal.

Maintain privacy controls based on final user preferences across sessions and site visits.

This systematic approach supports appropriate handling of universal opt-out preferences while providing flexibility for user choice.
