Overview

PowerReviews is a ratings and reviews platform used by retailers and brands. It embeds review display and submission widgets on product pages and syndicates user-generated content across retail partner sites.

What This Script Does

  • Loads review display widgets showing ratings, reviews, and Q&A on product detail pages
  • Provides review submission forms for authenticated or anonymous users
  • Collects user-submitted content (reviews, photos, questions) and sends it to PowerReviews servers
  • May set cookies to track review submission state and prevent duplicate submissions
  • Syndicates reviews across retailer partner sites via PowerReviews' network

Consent & Compliance

  • Category: Functional
  • GDPR: Generally operates as a functional tool. Review submission involves collecting personal data (name, email) which requires a lawful basis, but the widget display itself is functional.
  • CCPA: User-submitted review data is collected with explicit user action. Display-only functionality does not collect personal information passively.
  • ePrivacy: Cookies used are typically functional (session state, submission tracking). No advertising cookies.

Should You Block This Without Consent?

No. PowerReviews provides functional product review features that are part of the core site experience. It does not perform cross-site advertising tracking.

Is PowerReviews GDPR compliant?

PowerReviews typically loads marketing and 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 PowerReviews 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 PowerReviews, not on PowerReviews itself.
