GDPR compliance
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) regulates the collection and processing of personal information belonging to citizens of the European economic area. It is intended to improve data privacy and require transparency for all steps involved in collecting, storing, and processing information in the internet. The legislation is effective as of May 25, 2018.
If your company is registered in the EU or Switzerland, or you must comply with GDPR rules for other reasons, you can:
- Warn users that your site uses cookies and Yandex Metrica tracking.
- Read and confirm acceptance of the Yandex Metrica data processing agreement when you create or edit a tag.
In addition, Yandex Metrica:
- Recognizes form fields where users might enter confidential information. This information is automatically masked with asterisks. Accurate field recognition is not guaranteed, as some technologies used on the site may interfere with field recognition. To guarantee the disabling of form field recording, use special CSS classes.
- Allows masking of users’ IP addresses. If you enable this option, note that it might reduce the accuracy of location data in Yandex Metrica reports.
Site users can:
- Stop the Yandex Metrica tracking tag on all sites they visit, by installing a blocker.
- Prevent the tracking tag from working on specific site pages, by using the browser console when visiting these pages.
We also take all necessary measures to comply with other laws, in particular, the Digital Services Act (DSA). Based on the nature of our service, we do not moderate content. Any questions regarding the DSA can be sent to dsa@yandex-team.com.
