Frequently Asked Questions

Does Rackspace hosting infrastructure require visitor consent?

No. Rackspace is a managed cloud services provider that hosts assets on behalf of the website operator. Rackspace does not inject tracking or advertising code, set non-essential cookies, or independently collect personal information from site visitors.

What role does Rackspace play when its hostnames appear on a website?

Assets from Rackspace hostnames are website operator resources hosted on Rackspace cloud infrastructure. Rackspace operates as backend hosting with no client-side tracking functionality, behavioral monitoring, or advertising capabilities of its own.

How does ConsentStack classify Rackspace?

ConsentStack categorizes Rackspace as essential infrastructure because it hosts the operator's own assets rather than running third-party tracking. ConsentStack does not block Rackspace-hosted resources, as they are equivalent to first-party server infrastructure.
