Default consent settings + notes

setting consent

conf key

use the following keys to set the default behaviour if no consent is set via integration URL explicitly (otherwise everything currently defaults to true):

• application.clients.xcAjaxClient.config.trackingConsent= true|false ,
• application.clients.xcAjaxClient.config.essentialCookieConsent= true|false ,
• application.clients.xcAjaxClient.config.trackingCookieConsent= true|false ,

Matomo notes

• Matomo is able to run without cookies
• When opting out of matomo, the cookie mtm_consent_removed is set
  • However if tracking is disabled initially, matomo won’t be initialized and thus the cookie won’t be set - only if it’s disabled lateron
• Current implementation uses opt-out for matomo because when opt-in is required, cookie opt-in doesn’t work anymore
