How to add a new rule to your geographical and device-based settings
Steps to take to add a general, data privacy, accessibility, age gating, or sanctions and other restrictions rule for a geographic region or type of device
As technology evolves, the regulatory compliance landscape changes to protect consumers, potentially affecting your business's website. Clym's compliance team's main goal is to help identify the increasing compliance requirements placed on businesses across various categories, including data privacy, accessibility, age gating, sanctions, and additional restrictions, and to help protect our customers.
Clym removes the added stress of needing to keep up with laws as they are introduced and amended. After adding Clym to your website, we automatically update your widget with new features and compliance updates, eliminating the need for manual adjustments.
If you need to implement additional rules to support your business requirements, such as ensuring that your website visitors meet a specific age requirement or displaying a simplified version of the Clym widget for users on mobile browsers to enhance their experience on smaller screens, Clym now offers robust geographical and device-based settings. These settings allow you to establish specific rules effectively.
Please note: If you have not already filled out all of the fields under your Company Data section, it is important to edit your company data before creating any custom rules. Depending on your answers to some of the questions in your Company Data section, certain rules may automatically be created based on certain criteria and regulations that may protect your users. To ensure that your custom-created rules are not overwritten, please first complete your Company Data section before creating any custom rules.
Adding a custom rule is an easy 3-step process:
1. Sign in to your Clym Control Center
