Hello,
therefore Enfold is one of the best gdpr copmpliant templates I´d like to ask how to use / embed Google Maps, Youtube and Google fonts gdpr compliant.
Must I choose an preview image for maps and videos?
Is there anywhere a guide / best practice?
Thank You
Best
WWell, that really seems to be a German problem, that you try to comply with the law.
I don’t think it’s actually eaten as hot as it’s cooked.
But – you are right – for me as a German it is probably also too important to correspond to that.so i started here my thoughts on how to fullfill all aspects of the GDPR (DSGVO)
Maps: https://kriesi.at/support/topic/google-maps-gdpr-dsgvo/Same thing with youtube films : https://kriesi.at/support/topic/checkbox-to-show-lightbox-or-not/#post-1011241
See how it works: https://webers-testseite.de/weber/youtube-links/
On Google Font load – i do it localy : the copyright is clear on googel fonts – they allow to download and do a selfhost.
Hi,
Thanks for helping out and sharing @guenni007, did that answer your question @wolfgangemmer?
Best regards,
RikardBefore buying enfold I asked, if I can use YouTube / Maps correctly (not violationg gdpr): Please see the answer of “Yeet”: https://themeforest.net/item/enfold-responsive-multipurpose-theme/4519990/comments?utf8=%E2%9C%93&term=wolfgangemmer&from_buyers_and_authors_only=0&order_by=relevance
(“And it is GDPR compliant.”)I do not understand why I´ve to code now so much. I thought if I buy enfold it works a lot gdpr compliant without manual coding – otherwise I could have been with my old templates…
Please can you clarify.
Thanksno – on my opinion the newest enfold with the conditional load is enough to get consent for the maps.
Enfold offers to load the fonts locally! And to have on contact form a consent field.
But if you realy like to be a 100% sure – then a double opt in is the safest way in order to abide by the law.But I already mentioned above that the feared wave of warnings failed to materialize and it is probably not seen so strictly.
The law just wants to achieve that a consent is given before data is sent. Therefore I think it is much more important how I deal with tools like Google Ads or Google Analytics. The cookie Consent should actually block the entire page first, except for the data protection page and the imprint page.So for my websites i decided to install Borlabs Cookie Tool and to avoid Datasending before Opt In. –
It’s always a mistake whether you run the risk of losing visitors to the site by asking too many questions, or whether you rather interpret the laws a little more generously.From my point of view, I prefer to protect myself – before I waste my strength in court proceedings.
That’s why I load the Google fonts locally, ask twice if the maps should be displayed and don’t use any analysis tools.That’s not much code for me. And you only have to copy & paste it. I had to write it myself first.
I provide this here for those who want to keep it similar. Who wants to act differently can do this.this is my sources in comaprison to a normal Page:
No ID is sent before consent. No statisic tools are loaded. No Font from Google etc. pp. – That is paranoid indeedIt is just a matter of interpretation whether there is a legitimate interest to use Google Fonts, and to accept that the visitor ID will be sent to Google.
Also with Google Maps. One can represent the legal position that there is a legitimate interest to present these without demand. etc. pp.Hi,
Thanks for the update, and thanks to @guenni007 for helping out :-)
Please let us know if you should need any further help on the topic or if we can close it.
Best regards,
Rikard
