v1.4.0 Cookie Notice (MndCookieNotice) - EN

Description

Cookie notice

This Shopware Plugin can provide a notice to shop visitors about the usage of cookies (e.g. GDPR or privacy compliance, etc.). It provides also privacy-settings for visitors, so they can manually opt-in or opt-out of trackings on your website. Google Analytics is pre configured and our plugin "Facebook Pixel for Shopware" integrates automatically (from version 1.1.3).
Texts, colors and positioning of the cookie notice can easily configured in the plugin settings.

Privacy settings

From version 1.2.0 you can enable the privacy-settings dialog. It enables visitors to anonymously configure their opt-in / opt-out preferences. From version 1.4.0 you can integrate your own trackings in the privacy-settings.
Via the plugin configuration you can define the default behavior of the trackings. Opt-In tracking is disabled for new visitors per default. Opt-Out: tracking is enabled for new visitors per default.

Opt-Out links for privacy policy

The privacy-settings of the plugin can be opened anywhere from the shop via javascript code.

The plugin now provides javascript functions to trigger the opt outs in html links anywhere in your shop. E.g. you can add a link in your privacy policy to directly opt-out from google analytics.

Plugin configuration

Config Option "Notice-Version"

By increasing the config option "notice version" you can force the disply of the notice to your visitors. The accepted version is part of the accept-cookie of the visitor. If the display has a higher version than the user, the notice is displayed to the visitor.

Privacy Settings

When activating the setting "Link to privacy statement", the link to open the privacy settings will be appended to the cookie notice text for visitors. The link to the privacy settings is also appended to the customers account menu.

display frontend/backend: 

• possibility 1: Google Analytics is activated, the user has the chance to deactivate the tracking.

• possibility 2: Changing the settings at backend to Opt-In function, the user have to activate the tracking.

Custom privacy cookies

If you want to integrate other tracking cookies to the privacy settings you can easily add up to 5 custom privacy cookies. 

There are three configuration steps:

1. Choose a cookie label and cookie name
2. Choose the default setting
3. Change your integration code

Configure individual trackings

You can configure individual trackings to show in the privacy-settings and control their integration via the set privacy cookie for opt-in and opt-out. You can define 5 individual trackings.

Our plugin sets a "privacy cookie" for each configured tracking with the configured name. In your tracking integratino you can check for the cookie and activate or deactivate the tracking accordingly.

The following steps need to be taken care of:

1. Set the cookie label: this one shows up in the privacy-settings for the visitor
2. Set the name of the cookie: This is the internal name of the cookie.
3. Set the default mode: Opt-In or Opt-Out
4. Add the if-construct to your tracking integration

• Backend configuration at the example of "Matomo"

• Frontend

Customize your Tracking Code Integration

In this case a cookie with the name "matomo-is-active" and the value "true" is created. Now you'll need to integrate the cookie with your integration code:

 <script>
 	if(mndGetTrackingCookie('matomo-is-active') == 'true') {
		your integration code
	} 
 </script>

If the user clicks on the "Opt-Out" button the value of the cookie "matomo-is-active" is changed to "false" and the tracking is disabled.

Opt-Out links for shop content (for use in privacy policy etc.)

<a href="javascript:mndCookieNotice.mndOpenPrivacySettings();">Privatsphäre-Einstellungen</a>

Links for direct Google Analytics Opt-In/opt-Out:

<a href="javascript:mndCookieNotice.mndGAOptOut();" onclick="alert('Google Analytics deaktiviert.');">Google Analytics deaktivieren</a>

<a href="javascript:mndCookieNotice.mndGAOptIn();" onclick="alert('Google Analytics aktiviert.');">Google Analytics aktivieren</a>

Links for direct opt-in/opt-out from custom trackings:

<a href="javascript:mndCookieNotice.mndOptOutCustom('cookie-name');“ onclick=„alert('cookie-label deactivated.');“>Deactivate cookie-label</a>

<a href="javascript:mndCookieNotice.mndOptInCustom('cookie-name');“ onclick=„alert('cookie-label activated.');“>Activate cookie-label</a>

Just change cookie-name and cookie-label to the values you've configured in the plugin configuration.
