Overview

Formstack is an online form builder and workflow automation platform used for lead capture, registrations, surveys, and data collection. Its scripts embed interactive form widgets on websites.

What This Script Does

Formstack scripts load embeddable form widgets that render on your pages. The forms collect user-submitted data (text inputs, file uploads, signatures) and transmit submissions to Formstack's servers. The scripts may track form interaction metrics such as field focus time, partial completions, and form abandonment rates. Formstack uses cookies or localStorage to maintain form state during multi-page forms and to prevent duplicate submissions. Submitted data can trigger automated workflows, document generation, and integrations with CRM or payment systems.

Consent & Compliance

  • Consent Category: Functional
  • Cookies/Storage: May set cookies for form state persistence and duplicate submission prevention. Form interaction analytics (field timing, abandonment) may use additional storage.
  • GDPR/ePrivacy: The form widget itself serves a functional purpose. Cookies for form state and anti-duplication are arguably strictly necessary for the form submission service. If Formstack collects form interaction analytics (abandonment tracking, field timing), that component could require consent.
  • CCPA: Form submission data is collected on your behalf as the site operator. Formstack acts as a service provider.

Should You Block This Without Consent?

No. Formstack provides functional form infrastructure for data collection. Blocking it would prevent form rendering and submission. The cookies used are primarily for form operation rather than tracking.

Is Formstack GDPR compliant?

Formstack typically loads functional trackers, which are not strictly necessary for your site to work. Under the GDPR and the ePrivacy Directive, non-essential cookies and trackers must stay blocked until a visitor gives clear opt-in consent. So Formstack can be fully GDPR compliant, but only if your site holds its scripts until consent is granted and lets visitors decline just as easily. Compliance depends on how your site loads Formstack, not on Formstack itself.
