Re: Gdpr - upcoming law for European merchants
 

There seems to be an issue with the GDPR Module on XC Stores that are using the X-Cart Mobile module. (In my case I installed it on v4.6.6)

Firstly - The Cookie Popup appears to reload every time you visit a page.
Secondly - Clicking on the 'Learn More' link goes to a 404 page.

XC - Are you able to look into this?

And so it begins….

"Name: xyzzy

Subject: EU

As a US citizen why is it mandatory that I concur with EU requirements in order to process my order from Japan?"

Hi,

Use GEoIP to only display GDPR to EU customers :-) :-) :-)

:grin: ...Obviously I wouldn't advise ignoring the legislation.

Re: Gdpr - upcoming law for European merchants
 

I don't believe the module allows for that, you have to show it to everyone, no?

Hi kevinrm,

I do not use x-cart 5 but I am sure I have seen a screenshot somewhere on the forums of an EU GEoIP setting for x-cart 5?

It does allow. You have to install the Geolocation module though.

GDPR applies to EU only. You are not required to show it to anyone else although you can.

You can adjust the policy text to cover everyone however non-EU customers may feel forced to something they don't want in the first place.

Re: Gdpr - upcoming law for European merchants
 

I have Geolocation module, I do not see anywhere in XC5 where you can turn off the GDPR checkbox at the checkout. I see how you can disable the *pop-up*, but at checkout the checkbox for that remains for non-EU countries.

Re: Gdpr - upcoming law for European merchants
 

Oh that's for the checkbox. Sorry. I don't think you can turn this off. The Geolocation is for the popup only.

Re: Gdpr - upcoming law for European merchants
 

One would *assume* that if the cookie popup is disabled then the cookie would not set the GDPR checkout boxes - that's how it works in x-cart 4.6.6
