Installing Clym on a Squarespace website is a 3-step process:

Add an </> Code Block to your footer
Copy/paste the links for "Privacy Center" and "Do not sell or share my personal information"

Before you get started, make sure you have at hand the Clym widget code and the links for "Privacy Center" and "Do not sell or share my personal information". You should have received them via email or you can copy them from your Clym admin account.

1. Copy/paste the Clym widget code

Please sign in to your Clym account or open the email you received containing the privacy widget embed code. Please follow the instructions for step 1 based on which option you are using:

FROM YOUR CLYM ADMIN ACCOUNT:
From the left-hand side menu, toggle to Website settings. Click the drop-down arrow next to Setup instructions to open the additional installation options.

First, select Squarespace to access the Clym privacy widget embed code that you will need to add to the header section of your website. Copy the embed code from the Copy the code below field.
FROM YOUR EMAIL:

Copy the embed code from within the box labeled Clym privacy widget.

Please log into your Squarespace account. From the side navigation menu, select Settings. From the settings menu, scroll down to the bottom and select Advanced. From the advanced menu, select Code Injection.

Note that, to facilitate compliance, this script has to be inserted as the first script under the "head" section of your website. Failure to do so might allow third-party scripts to be loaded on your website and, depending on regulation, that might result in non-compliance. For easy viewing, you may leave space in between the Clym script and any following scripts or code.

2. Add an </> Code Block to your footer

Return to Squarespace and click edit in the top left corner next to your website. Once your website editor is open, scroll to the bottom to find your footer section. Click Edit Footer.
