Here’s a quick 2 minute video showing you how to install Clym’s compliance widget onto your website. Below the video, you will also find step-by-step instructions in written form.

Installing Clym on a Squarespace website is a 3-step process:
- Copy / paste the Clym widget code
- Add an Embed HTML element to your footer
- Repeat the process with 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 open 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.
Paste your Clym embed code into the header field and click Save.
Note that, in order 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.
Click Add Block in the top left corner of your footer, and search for </> Code. Add this block to your footer section.
3. Copy / paste the links for "Privacy Center" and "Do not sell or share my personal information"
Return to your email (or Clym Admin account). You will need to copy the Privacy Center button/link and Do not sell or share button/link embed codes one at a time.
Go back to your Squarespace site editor and paste the Privacy Center button/link and Do not sell or share button/link embed codes from Clym one at a time into the </> code block in your footer. Click Save.
You're all set! Clym's widget will now display on your website based on how you setup your widget layout.
Please note that based on your geolocation, you may not see the privacy widget. To view Clym on your site, scroll to the footer of your website and click Privacy Center or Do not sell or share my personal information to open the widget. View more ways to verify the installation here.
