• Serving consent form popup. Each visitor will receive a consent form popup. Visitors can choose what they agree to, for example, consent for analytics but not for remarketing.
• Each visitor will be able to send a request (via data subject rights widget) for: Data erasure, Data rectification, Access to data.
• Piwik PRO user is able to manage a visitor’s requests (data erasure, rectification, or access to data) from the Consent Manager admin panel.
