Besides the global GDPR compliance settings located int he Privacy tab, each of the separate tracking services configured in the "Google" And "Other" tabs to Privacy and Tracking will also have an Opt into configuration field: The Opt in to can be applied to: (select one) Statistics / Prefernences / Marketing required for (select one) All Customers/ EEA Customers / Non-US Customers |
You'll configure the Google related tracking and analytics tracking and conversion.
The following configuration options are available:
The Other sub-tab contains the following third-party tracking and conversion pixels options:
The Custom sub-tab contains two sections for configuring tracking pixels and scripts. These configuration sections can be for existing integrated tracking pixels or new ones that are not currently built into the "Other" sub-tab.
The first configuration section is for non-receipt pages, so you'll configure analytic/tracking pixels or scripts that are not for the actual order conversion.
This section is for conversion pixels and scripts that fire off at the completion of the purchase and loading of the receipt.
By default, UltraCart StoreFronts will automatically optimize page speed by consolidating JavaScript files and pushing the load of them to the bottom of the page. If you want to prevent this behavior, add a data attribute to the script tag like the example below:
<script src="/js/myscript.js" data-uc-ignore></script> |
UltraCart has advanced support for detecting traffic sent to your site from various affiliate networks and then firing only their conversion pixel on the receipt.
Please read this tutorial on how to configure the affiliate network pixel feature.
The advanced sub-tab contains the following settings:
Question: At what point in the checkout process do the configured tracking and conversion scripts render?
Answer: If the checkout is configured with a custom Thank You Page, then the conversion pixels will fire prior to the handoff to the external thank you page. Otherwise, the pixel are injected into the receipt page.
Question: I'm looking my upsell offers and would like to insert tracking snippet, but I don't see a way to access page outside of the body, how can I add my snippet?
Answer: UltraCart will insert the configured tracking script snippets into every page of the page. However, "Conversion pixels may only be placed into the receipt page that is loaded at the end of a purchase.
Question: Can UltraCart provide sample Privacy Policy and/or Terms of Service copy to use in our storefront?
Answer: UltraCart can't give legal advice or provide stock templates for that type of content. You may wish to consult with a business attorney regarding the specific wording of each document. However, there are also many different TOC/Privacy policy generator companies out there that you can consult.
