Overview

Sourcepoint is a privacy and consent management platform used by publishers and advertisers. Its scripts deliver GDPR and CCPA-compliant consent notices, record user consent decisions, and enforce script blocking based on those preferences.

What This Script Does

  • Displays consent banners and privacy notices compliant with GDPR, CCPA, and other regulations
  • 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

  • Category: Essential / Functional
  • GDPR: Sourcepoint is itself a consent management tool. It must load before other scripts to enforce consent decisions. Setting consent preference cookies is strictly necessary.
  • CCPA: Provides the opt-out mechanism required by CCPA. Must be available to users before data collection begins.
  • ePrivacy: Consent management tools are classified as strictly necessary under ePrivacy guidance.

Should You Block This Without Consent?

No. Sourcepoint is a consent management platform. Blocking it would prevent users from exercising their privacy rights. It must load before other scripts to function correctly.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Sourcepoint itself require cookie consent to load?

No. Sourcepoint is a consent management platform that delivers GDPR and CCPA-compliant consent notices. As privacy infrastructure, it is essential and exempt from consent requirements. Sourcepoint must load unconditionally on page load to present visitors with consent choices before any other scripts fire.

What does Sourcepoint store and process?

Sourcepoint stores visitor consent preferences and records consent events with timestamps. It enforces script blocking and unblocking based on the user's choices, passing consent signals downstream to connected advertising and analytics vendors. A functional cookie records consent state across sessions so visitors are not re-prompted unnecessarily.

How does ConsentStack classify Sourcepoint?

ConsentStack classifies Sourcepoint as essential and functional consent management infrastructure. Sourcepoint scripts are never blocked by ConsentStack. If Sourcepoint is already deployed as the site's CMP, ConsentStack recognizes it and notes it as the active consent layer managing downstream vendor blocking.
