Q: GDPR Compliance – Cookie Consent, Privacy Policy & Legal Requirements

I am using your service Tier2 to run my online store internationally, especially within the European Union. As I am located in Germany, I must comply with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) . I kindly ask for your help with the following questions:
Is there a way to integrate a cookie consent banner (opt-in) to obtain user consent for non-essential cookies (e.g., analytics, marketing, payment providers)?
Can I insert custom JavaScript or HTML code into the header or footer of my store, for example, to integrate an external cookie consent tool (like Osano or Cookiebot)?
Is there any documentation or guidance on how to include a custom privacy policy and legal imprint on my store? Are any cookies or third-party services (e.g., Google Fonts, tracking tools) used by LaunchMyStore that I should be aware of for GDPR compliance?

A: Please find the answers to your questions below:

Cookie Consent Banner:
Yes, you can use a script to display a cookie consent banner via the Customize section in your store. You can input your preferred code (such as Osano or Cookiebot) there to collect user consent for non-essential cookies like analytics and marketing tools.

Custom Code in Header/Footer:
Currently, adding custom JavaScript or HTML directly to the header or footer is not supported. However, we’re actively working on a new theme engine that will include this functionality. Stay tuned—it’s coming soon!

Privacy Policy and Legal Imprint:
You can absolutely include a custom privacy policy and legal imprint. There are dedicated sections in your store’s settings for adding these important legal pages. If you need guidance, we’d be happy to provide step-by-step instructions.

Geo-targeting:
Geo-targeting is currently enabled at checkout. The user’s country is automatically selected based on their location, and we are exploring further geo-targeting features for broader privacy adaptations.

Third-Party Services and Cookies:

We use Google Fonts and Google Analytics on our branded domains.

If you connect your own custom domain, we do not track any user data by default.

Rest assured, we are actively working toward full GDPR compliance across our platform.

We understand how important data protection is and truly appreciate your due diligence. If you need any help implementing these features or have more questions, please feel free to reach out.
