User.com and GDPR: how to manage consent

User.com is an audience measurement or analytics service. Depending on its configuration, its use may involve browser storage, tracking technologies or the transmission of data to a third-party provider.

When the configuration of User.com requires consent, the service should only be activated after the visitor has made a choice. tarteaucitron can condition its loading on that decision.

Managing User.com with tarteaucitron

When User.com is integrated through tarteaucitron, its activation is managed according to the visitor's consent choice. The service can therefore be loaded only when the corresponding permission has been granted and the visitor can later change this choice through the consent interface.

Cookies and storage used by User.com

The current tarteaucitron integration declares 1 cookie associated with User.com:

  • _ca_chat

This list corresponds to the cookies currently declared in the tarteaucitron service definition. The service provider may change its technical implementation over time.

Configuring User.com

Add the following code to your website after initializing tarteaucitron. Replace the example values with those provided by User.com.

<script>
tarteaucitron.user.userId = 'ID';
(tarteaucitron.job = tarteaucitron.job || []).push('usercom');
</script>

Additional code

The following code can already be present on your website and should be kept where the service is used.

<script>tarteaucitron.user.userApiKey = 'apiKey';</script>

Code to remove

Default HTML code to remove from your website:

<script> window.civchat = { apiKey: 'apiKey', }; </script> <script data-cfasync="false" type="text/javascript" src="https://ID.user.com/widget.js"> </script>

For a complete guide, read the documentation to install tarteaucitron.js.

Privacy information
