Consent & Compliance

  • Category: Analytics / Marketing
  • GDPR: Requires consent when advertising scripts collect personal data for targeting.
  • CCPA: Ad-related data collection may qualify as sale/sharing of personal information.
  • ePrivacy: Requires consent for advertising and analytics cookies.

Should You Block This Without Consent?

Yes. Nexstar scripts include advertising infrastructure and behavioral tracking that go beyond essential site functionality. They should be blocked until consent is granted.

Is Nexstar Media Group GDPR compliant?

Nexstar Media Group typically loads marketing and analytics 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 Nexstar Media Group 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 Nexstar Media Group, not on Nexstar Media Group itself.
