For any processing to be allowed by Utiq, first, a Data Processing Agreement (DPA) must exist between Utiq and the Brand or Publisher.
Please contact our Customer Success team at csm@utiq.com to get directed to the appropriate person from our Commercial team to guide you through the process.
A Brand or Publisher should provide the following information to Utiq to enable the service:
Data Controller: the legal entity that appears in the website’s privacy policy page.
Technical integration contact email: the email address of the person(s) that Utiq Engineering can contact to resolve any issues.
Websites(domains) in scope: all domains to be integrated.
Confirm CNAME creation: for each of the domains in scope a Utiq subdomain should be created, e.g., for domain example.com a subdomain utiq.example.com should be created and set to point to frontend.prod.utiq-aws.net. The default setup for the SSL certificate uses Let’s Encrypt and is management automatically by the Utiq platform.
Important: if you’re using CAA records, as a minimum the
utiq.example.comdomain must allow theletsencrypt.orgdomain. For more information see Let’s Encrypt CAA records documentation.
This sub-domain is required to manage server set 1st party cookies and to limit service and data access, i.e. use the browser’s domain enabled security, for example, CORS.
Email addresses for testers: the email addresses for the person(s) that will need to test using a testing stub, i.e. be able to view the Utiq Consent Manager popup and access the Utiq consenthub portal before live traffic is allowed live on your website(s)
Details on how to use the stub are available in our Testing documentation.
Request cross-domain martechpasses: This is allowed for domains that share the same Data Controller.
Utiq consent handling: Utiq provides and encourages the use of its out-of-the box consent popup that adheres to current privacy requirements and is available in many languages. This popup can be customized to include the logo of your website and match its look and feel, (see Pop-up Customisation Options).
Estimated unique monthly users: the average unique monthly users for all websites in scope.
Testing approach: It should be possible for Utiq to validate your integration in a restricted environment. This can either be a staging environment or a production environment with a limited number of users, for example, by using a special URL parameter such as https://example.com?utiqtest=1.
Note: Utiq will not be able to validate the integration if the website is behind a firewall or VPN.
Once all the information in the above checklist is received, our Customer Success Team will arrange with our Engineering Team for all the necessary steps to be completed to enable the testing of the service.
Then, you will be provided with one or more testing stubs to test the service.
Once the testing is completed successfully (including the Partner Privacy Requirements), the service will be enabled for live traffic at a mutually agreed date and time.
