Security settings for your website
Notice:
These instructions apply to the new Website Builder. If your site was built with the legacy builder, see our guide on publication security settings for legacy websites. The new builder is actively evolving, so some details shown here may differ from what you see in-app.
Security settings for your publication are managed within the Website Builder, where you’ll find the ability to enable a cookie banner and display your Terms of Service (ToS) and Privacy Policy for GDPR and CCPA compliance. You can also add a custom ToS link and configure subscriber login options to give you more control over access and privacy.
How to enable GDPR and CCPA compliance
- From the left panel dashboard, go to Website > Builder.
- Click the Settings icon in the left panel, then select All settings.
- Your site settings will open on the General page. In the left panel, click GDPR, CCPA, & Compliance.
- On this page, you can toggle the following options on or off. Changes are saved automatically.
Cookie Banner: Enable this to display a cookie banner when someone first visits your site. This allows users to opt out of non-essential cookies.
Signup ToS & Privacy Policy: Enable this to require subscribers to agree to your Terms of Service and Privacy Policy before subscribing by checking a consent box.
Pro Tip: To ensure full GDPR and CCPA compliance, both the Cookie Banner and ToS/Privacy Policy options must be enabled.
- (Optional) If you’ve enabled the Signup ToS & Privacy Policy option, add a URL for a Terms of Service page to the Subscriber Signup Terms of Service field. Changes are saved automatically.
How to configure subscriber login options
- From the left panel dashboard, go to Website > Builder.
- Click the Settings icon in the left panel, then select All settings.
- Your site settings options will open on the General page. In the left column, click on Login.
- On this page, you can enable or disable a login option for your subscribers. By default, this is not enabled.
Subscriber Password Login: Enable this to let subscribers create and use a password to log in directly on your publication site. Changes are saved automatically.
