Consent & Compliance

  • GDPR: May require consent if recommendations are personalized based on browsing history. If recommendations are purely content-based (matching article topics), a legitimate interest basis may apply.
  • CCPA: Generally does not qualify as a sale/share if recommendations are based on page content rather than user profiles.
  • ePrivacy: Cookies for widget functionality may be considered functional. Cookies for personalization may require consent.

Should You Block This Without Consent?

No. Threadloom provides a functional content discovery feature for publishers. It primarily enhances editorial navigation rather than serving advertising. If the widget uses personalization based on user browsing history, consider requiring consent for that component.
