Geolocation at Axeptio: the DJ of your cookies 🎉🍪
Your site is a big party, and each visitor is a new dancer on your cookie dance floor. But for everything to go smoothly, everyone needs to hear the right music, based on their region and preferences (or rather, their language and local regulations). This is where Axeptio's geolocation comes in, your master of ceremonies.
How does it work?
Axeptio's geolocation is like a super-smart party organizer. As soon as a visitor arrives, it ensures they dance to the perfect playlist for their country and language. Here's how it works:
Regulatory verification 🎛️
If the visitor comes from a country with specific regulations (for example, GDPR for Europe or Law 25 for Quebec), Axeptio applies a specific configuration to them.Browser language: a matter of style 🎶
If multiple configurations are available for this country, Axeptio chooses the one that matches the visitor's browser language. No problem if you like salsa in Spanish or jazz in English!The "fallback configuration": the default playlist 💿
And if truly no settings match the visitor (like a surprise guest from a distant country), Axeptio applies the fallback configuration you've defined. No more leaving anyone on the sidelines!
How do you install geolocation?
It's easy, like preparing a playlist:
Go to the "Publish" tab in your Axeptio back office. (Top left)
Add your different configurations according to regions or languages. For example, one configuration for Europe, one for Quebec, etc.
Activate the Geolocation option at the bottom of your configuration list.
Select a fallback configuration to handle surprise guests. Quick reminder: this configuration must be published to be active.
Why enable geolocation?
To comply with local regulations: GDPR, Law 25... each country has its own rules, and it is crucial to comply with them.
To provide a personalized experience: each visitor will benefit from an interface tailored to their expectations.
