Does Subscribers require cookie consent?
Yes. Subscribers.com is a web push notification marketing platform. Scripts prompt visitors to opt in to browser push notifications and collect subscriber identifiers. Under GDPR this constitutes marketing processing requiring prior consent. The push notification prompt is a form of consent, but cookie consent is still needed for tracking scripts.
What does Subscribers collect from website visitors?
Subscribers scripts register a service worker to enable push delivery and store a push subscription token tied to the visitor's browser. Subscriber identifiers and segmentation data may be stored to enable targeted messaging. Scripts may also set cookies to track subscription status and suppress repeat prompts.
How does ConsentStack manage Subscribers on my site?
ConsentStack classifies Subscribers.com as marketing. If a visitor denies marketing consent, ConsentStack blocks the Subscribers script from loading, preventing the push notification prompt from appearing. When marketing consent is granted, the script loads and the subscription flow can proceed.
