The website building CMS "ClipkitⓇ", developed and sold by Vector Inc. (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director and CEO: Keiji Nishie; TSE Prime: 6058; hereinafter "Vector"), has newly released a "CMP (Consent Management Platform) function" to support corporate privacy compliance. This makes it possible to centrally manage consent regarding the use of data such as Cookies on the Clipkit management screen, enabling compliance with privacy-related regulations such as the GDPR (EU General Data Protection Regulation) and the revised Telecommunications Business Act with the CMS alone.
■ Background: "Transparency in Data Usage" Required of Companies
Starting with the GDPR in Europe, and also with the enforcement of the revised Telecommunications Business Act in Japan, it has become necessary to explain to users and ensure transparency regarding the use of Cookies on websites and the transmission of information to external services. The CMP (Consent Management Platform) is increasingly being adopted as a countermeasure for this.
A CMP is a mechanism that explains data usage to site visitors and obtains and manages their consent for usage. The introduction of a CMP is not limited to mere legal and regulatory compliance; it is attracting attention as an initiative that also leads to improved reliability of the corporate brand by providing users with the "peace of mind of being able to control their own data."
■ Features of Clipkit's CMP Function
By using this function on a website built with Clipkit, the following operations can be realized.
- Display of consent management banner
Clearly states the purpose of data collection and the destination tools, and displays a banner where users can select "Allow" or "Reject". It supports ensuring information transparency and user choices required by Europe's GDPR and Japan's revised Telecommunications Business Act (external transmission regulations).
- List management of external transmission destinations
Organizes external services such as Google Analytics and advertising tags, and prepares an environment where users can check the details and change settings at any time.
- Log management of consent acquisition
It is possible to perform operations such as checking the history of consent acquisition and downloading the history as a CSV in batch from the Clipkit management screen.
■ Information Regarding Implementation
- Existing Clipkit users
Minor site modifications will be required to reflect this function on websites already built and operated with Clipkit. For interested customers, we will provide an estimate for the modifications for implementation, so please feel free to consult with us. Please check below for usage fees.
Clipkit SaaS Plan: Available with no change to the monthly fee
Clipkit SaaS Exclusive Plan: Available with no change to the monthly fee, however, a paid Clipkit version upgrade is required
