How to remove automatic blocking option from a script

Steps to take to remove the automatic blocking from a script

To remain compliant with data privacy laws around the world, by design, Clym automatically blocks certain categories of scripts unless consent is provided by the user. Since Clym automatically detects the scripts running on your website and categorizes them for you when possible, our platform may block certain scripts from running on your website for users by default where privacy laws require it. If you notice that this is affecting your website's basic functionality, you may wish to remove the option for users to have this script blocked.

 

If your scripts are hosted within your website, or GTM, please follow the steps below. If your scripts are hosted in Clym, you do not need to perform any actions.
