Improved TV SDK: Easier to use thanks to QR codes
This month we revamped our SDK for TV support. On the one hand, this concerns the possibility of integration into different device types from different manufacturers. On the other hand, we have improved the handling of the consent banner within the TV set. Instead of making complicated settings in the consent banner using the remote control, you can now simply use your mobile phone:
Simply scan the QR code displayed on the television, make settings on your cell phone and the consent banner on the TV automatically saves the selection from your smartphone.

Digital Markets Act: The law on digital markets simply explained
The Digital Markets Act (DMA) came into force at the end of 2022 and its rules have been enforced by the European Commission since May 2, 2023. This article describes how the “gatekeepers” appointed by the European Commission, i.e. the major online players such as Amazon, Alphabet and Apple, ensure fair competition and continue to protect users’ rights online.

Advanced consent management: These are the features you should know about
The standard functions of a cookie banner tool may of course be sufficient for your company to comply with legal regulations. However, if your business complies with more than one regulation or if your website has an unusually high volume of monthly traffic, you should look for additional features in your consent tool that will not only help you comply with regulations but also improve your business operations.
In our article you will find out which advanced functions we recommend to our users: consentmanager
New video: Cookie Banner: GDPR compliant with consentmanager & OXID
On October 4th, consentmanager together with our partner OXID presented the webinar “Cookie Banner: GDPR compliant with consentmanager & OXID”. In addition to valuable information on the legal basis for a GDPR-compliant cookie banner, the implementation of such a banner on the OXID shopping platform was also discussed. With the new plugin, the consentmanager cookie banner integration on the OXID platform is now child’s play.
For those interested, the webinar can now be viewed later as a video.

DMEXCO 2023: It was so nice again
DMEXO 2023 – it was a celebration for us! And this year too, the two days of the trade fair flew by. We were able to welcome many new and well-known faces to our stand and had stimulating conversations. Our cookie mascot provided varied entertainment and the new trend is clearly “wearable cookies”. Our consentmanager team had a lot of fun and we would like to thank all visitors very much!
See you again in May at the OMR in Hamburg – save the date 07/08. May 2024!
Last Reminder: Switch to IAB TCF v2.2
Only one month left until the automatic switch to the new version of the IAB TCF v2.2 will take place. The exact time for the change is November 20, 2023. Anyone who has not yet informed themselves about this should do so as soon as possible.
Customers can perform the upgrade manually beforehand by logging into their consentmanager account and selecting Menu> CMPs> Other settings> Change IAB TCF .
All CMPs that have IAB TCF enabled and have not updated by November 20 will be automatically updated to the new version. With the upgrade, the names of the TCF purposes will change slightly, as will some provider information in the consent layer. However, most of the changes will not be noticeable.
We have put together some background information about this in our blog:

Shopware plugin update v1.1.4

Further optimizations and adjustments in October:
Do you already know our client-side configuration options? To change the behavior or design of the CMP, many different JavaScript variables are available in the consentmanager CMP. Recently, some error corrections were made in this context and a new additional custom HTML field for JS variables was added. You can find an overview of all JavaScript variables in our help: https://help. consentmanager .de/books/cmp/page/client-side-configuration-options
In the design area, missing options in the design preview have also been added and new standard designs have been added. Improvements in the publication of designs have also been implemented.
