Tracker exemption

Access Type: Data Manager - Editor

A tracker exemption is a setting that designates a tracker as consent-exempt (i.e. the tracker does not require consent).

Historically, your organization would manually configure tracker exemptions on a per domain basis for tracker and vendor discovery or Advanced Compliance Monitoring scans. Improvements to the Didomi platform has changed this behavior, however, and tracker exemptions are calculated in the Didomi back-end based on the legal basis of purposes assigned to a tracker.

Visit the resources below for how purposes are assigned to a tracker:

• Add tracker

• Unmatched trackers

The table below summarizes how Didomi calculates tracker exemptions. Trackers are only exempted when all assigned purposes to the tracker utilize legitimate interest (opt-out) as a legal basis.

Assigned purpose(s) legal basis	Tracker exempted
Consent
Legitimate Interest (Opt-Out)
Consent and Legitimate Interest

Tracker exemptions on a per domain basis can be viewed by clicking Tracking and Vendor Discovery or Advanced Compliance Monitoring on the left-hand panel.

Click the ellipsis inline with a scan and select Manage tracker policy from the drop-down menu.

Note: Be advised that the tracker policy when viewed on a domain scan is read-only. The actual configuration is performed within your organization's data manager. Click here for more information.

The read-only table on the subsequent page will list the trackers discovered on the page and the following information:

• Tracker name

• 1st/3rd party

• Initiator

• Vendor

• Type

• User behavior

• Purposes
