Global Privacy Control (GPC) is a standard that allows internet users to easily convey their privacy preferences across the web with just one action rather than multiple. GPC enables users to communicate their desire to avoid being tracked or having their data sold or shared directly to websites and online services. In the settings of your Clym widget, you can enable GPC, giving your website visitors more choices. Enabling GPC is an easy 3-step process:
