Is Sourcepoint GDPR compliant?
ConsentStack classifies Sourcepoint's trackers as essential (strictly necessary), so its banner does not block them. That is our classification, not a legal ruling. The exemption from prior consent comes from the ePrivacy Directive (Article 5(3)) and covers only what is strictly necessary for a service the visitor asked for, and the GDPR still governs any personal data, such as an IP address, sent to Sourcepoint. List Sourcepoint in your cookie policy and privacy notice so visitors know it is there.

- Records and stores user consent preferences
- Enforces script blocking and unblocking based on the user's consent choices
- Integrates with the IAB TCF and USPrivacy frameworks to signal consent status to downstream vendors
Consent & Compliance
