How does it work?
When a user visits a page on your website, a JavaScript tag is loaded from our high speed web servers.
This JavaScript content returned is customised to your website based on your website code and visitor location (which is why it’s loaded remotely).
When loading the script, we determine the location (country) of the visitor, and return a customised piece of JavaScript code based on this.
* If a user is requesting the page from within the EU, our code will redircet them to our hosted, customisable block page. We host this page for you and don’t log EU IP addresses, making your compliance easier.
* If a user is outside of the EU, we simply log the visit and allow them to continue.
Our servers are customised to serve your bespoke content at high speed, and without logging EU visitor IP addresses or other personal data.
Is it GDPR compliant to block EU traffic?
We believe that there are pros and cons to the approach as we’ve written about in detail in our blog article on the subject. Ultimately the decision is yours, and you should seek the advice of a legal professional if you’re not sure.
