Set B2C Commerce Einstein Privacy Preferences

In Business Manager, configure the default setting for tracking-related privacy preferences.

Einstein uses this setting to allow for browser-based activity tracking, which is used to track real-time activities by the shoppers on site, unless the setting is explicitly changed for a shopper.

Note
Note Einstein isn't the only service that uses the default privacy setting.

To set default privacy preferences:

  1. In Business Manager, click App Launcher App Launcher, and then selectMerchant Tools | site | Site Preferences | Privacy Settings.
  2. Select the customer-tracking default action for new storefront sessions.

  3. Select a Clickstream honors session do-not-track (DNT) setting.

    A shopper's session holds a clickstream object that contains the last 50 top-level requests (for example, pipeline calls) of the shopper. SiteGenesis uses this feature to determine the last products that the shopper visited to present some history for convenience. A script API exists to get the clickstream entries from the current session.

    Note
    Note This setting is related only to the clickstream API dw.web.Clickstream, and doesn’t control any other B2C Commerce clickstream functionality.

    Yes – Clickstream honors the storefront DNT session status.

    If session DNT=true, no clickstream events are collected.

    If session DNT=false, clickstream events are collected.

    No – Clickstream events are collected regardless of the sessions DNT status.

  4. Click Apply.
