Merchant's obligations

How can the end-consumer find the _findify_uniq and the _findify_visit cookies values?

The end-consumer must open the Inspector in their browser by clicking right on a page and select "Inspect". Go to the tab Console, and copy/paste this Javascript snippet:

window.findifyCallbacks.push(function(findify) {
  alert("_findify_uniq = " + findify.analytics.user.uid + " \n_findify_visit = " + findify.analytics.user.sid);
})

Right of access / data portability

Send an email to [email protected] with the following details:
Subject: Personal Information Access Request
Content:
Store URL = mystore.com
_findify_uniq = XXXXX
_findify_visit = YYYYY

These two values can be found in the end-consumer browser’s local storage.

Right to be forgotten

Send an email to [email protected] with the following details:
Subject: Personal Information Removal Request
Content:
Store URL = mystore.com
_findify_uniq = XXXXX
_findify_visit = YYYYY

These two values can be found in the end-consumer browser’s local storage.

Right to restrict processing

To disable the Findify tracking, this Javascript snippet can be enabled on the ecommerce store by the end-consumer (by clicking "No" on the consent banner for instance):

function findifyDisableTracking() {
   var date = new Date();
   date.setTime(date.getTime() + (365*24*60*60*1000));
   var expires = "; expires=" + date.toUTCString();
   document.cookie =  "findify_optout=1" + expires + "; path=/";
}
findifyDisableTracking();

It sets a cookie called "findify_optout" to the value "1", preventing the analytics JS to send the personal data of the end-consumer.
