THE PROBLEM

Affiliate Tracking Violates GDPR Without Consent

Standard affiliate tracking tools set cookies and track users immediately - this is illegal in the EU without explicit consent. Fines can reach €20 million or 4% of annual revenue.

What GDPR Requires

  • No tracking before consent: Can't set cookies until user accepts
  • Clear disclosure: Users must know what data you collect
  • Right to withdraw: Users can revoke consent anytime
  • Data minimization: Only collect necessary data

Without GDPR Compliance

Legal Risk:

Up to €20M fines or 4% of global annual revenue

Lost Customers:

Can't sell to 450M Europeans

Brand Damage:

Privacy violations hurt reputation

Operational Burden:

Complex legal compliance management

THE SOLUTION

AFFY's GDPR Consent Mode

Fully compliant affiliate tracking that respects user privacy and EU regulations

No Cookies Before Consent

AFFY waits for user consent before setting any cookies or tracking data

Event Queueing

Referral events are queued until consent is granted - you never lose attribution

Instant Processing

When consent is granted, all queued events are processed automatically

One-Line Setup

Add one attribute to your script tag - that's it

IMPLEMENTATION

Enable GDPR Mode in 60 Seconds

Step 1: Add data-requires-consent attribute

<!-- Standard AFFY implementation (not GDPR compliant) --> <script src="https://affy.pro/affy.js" data-client="123" data-ref="AFF456"></script> <!-- GDPR-compliant implementation ✅ --> <script src="https://affy.pro/affy.js" data-client="123" data-ref="AFF456" data-requires-consent="true"></script>

Step 2: Call consentGranted() when user accepts

// When user accepts cookies in your consent banner document.getElementById('accept-cookies').onclick = function() { AffyJS.consentGranted(); // ✅ Tracking enabled! }; // That's it! AFFY will now: // 1. Process all queued events // 2. Enable cookie storage // 3. Start tracking referrals

INTEGRATIONS

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

If you have visitors from the EU, yes. GDPR applies to any business that processes data of EU residents, regardless of where your company is based. Even a US-based SaaS with 10% EU traffic needs GDPR compliance.

Without consent mode, you can track US visitors normally while respecting EU users' privacy rights.

AFFY queues all tracking events in memory until consent is granted. When the user accepts cookies, all queued events are processed automatically in order.

This means you never lose attribution - even if the user signs up before accepting cookies, we'll still track it once they consent.

If you enable GDPR Consent Mode (with data-requires-consent="true"), yes, you'll need a consent banner to ask users for permission.

AFFY integrates with popular tools like CookieYes, OneTrust, and Cookiebot, or you can use a custom banner. Without a banner, tracking won't start.

Most affiliate tracking tools don't offer GDPR Consent Mode. They track immediately, which violates EU privacy laws.

AFFY is the only platform built with consent mode from day one, with full documentation and integration examples.

No, consent mode is opt-in via the data-requires-consent="true" attribute. This ensures backwards compatibility.

If you don't enable it, AFFY works like a standard tracking script (immediate tracking, no consent checks).

AFFY collects minimal data needed for affiliate tracking:

  • Affiliate reference code (from URL)
  • Click timestamp
  • Referrer URL
  • IP address (for fraud prevention)
  • User agent (browser/device info)

We don't collect personal information without consent. All data is used solely for affiliate commission attribution.
