Cookies, trackers, and legal notices on your site

Your published site sets no tracking cookies and loads no third-party trackers unless the visitor asks for them. Here's what that changes for the cookie banner, and what remains up to you (legal notices, terms and conditions of sale).

Sites published with WebAcappella load no advertising scripts or third-party analytics tools, and visit statistics are collected without cookies. Every time the engine is updated, an automatic check makes sure that no tracker address makes its way into its code.

Do you need a cookie banner?#

A consent banner is used to ask visitors for their agreement before setting non-essential cookies (advertising, personally identifiable audience measurement). Your site sets none. Two outside services load only when the visitor actually uses them: the anti-robot check, when they start filling in a form, and card payment (Stripe), when they pay for a purchase in the shop. That’s why the site doesn’t offer a banner, and doesn’t need one.

Legal notices and terms and conditions of sale#

• Legal notices: when a professional site is created, a “Legal notices” page is prepared with your account's legal identity, the host and our cookie guarantees, and linked from the footer. You can then edit it in the editor, site by site. Otherwise, ask the assistant to “add a legal notices page”.
• For the shop, your terms and conditions of sale are a link that you enter in its settings, pointing to a page on your site or an external address. The legal identity entered in your account, on the other hand, is displayed automatically in the checkout process and at the foot of the emails sent to buyers. See Configure selling.
• The messages from your forms are not kept by WebAcappella: they are sent to you by email, and it’s your mailbox that stores them.

YouTube and Vimeo videos#

The Video block loads nothing from YouTube or Vimeo with the page. Visitors first see a preview image and a sentence telling them that the video is hosted by one of these services, which set their own cookies. The player only loads when they click, and that click counts as consent, so your site still needs no banner. If your site has a personal data page, mention these services there. See Video.
