Compliance considerations

Embeds a JavaScript widget that sets a session cookie and may transmit feedback submissions to Feedbackify servers.

Consent: Consent is generally required under ePrivacy before loading the widget script if it sets cookies or transmits data. The widget can be treated as functional where its sole purpose is to relay user-initiated feedback with no behavioural tracking.

Data capture: Collects free-text feedback and ratings voluntarily submitted by users. IP address and basic session data are transmitted with each submission.

Privacy notice: Must disclose use of a third-party feedback tool, the data collected, and the data processor relationship with Feedbackify.

Data location: US-based — ensure appropriate transfer mechanism (Standard Contractual Clauses) is in place before deployment in regulated EU contexts.
