Consent management for your booking engine

Flip.to only uses first-party cookies that are placed on the site that the user is visiting. We are a data processor (or service provider) and our customers have full ownership of all data collected or processed on their behalf.

Flip.to supports consent signals out-of-the box for CookieBot, OneTrust, and Google Tag Manager. Most other consent management platforms integrate with Google Tag Manager, allowing them to provide consent signals without requiring any additional configuration.

If you are configuring a consent management platform, you can find more information below on the two types of cookies that are used by Flip.to—Strictly Necessary and Analytics.

Be sure to include the asterisk (*) when configuring these cookies in your consent management platform. The cookie names are prefixes and the asterisk is a wildcard representing a variety of property-specific suffixes.

Flip.to scripts are essential and should always run. There are three products, Spacetime, Discovery, and Advocacy that require consent management configuration for your booking engine.


Spacetime

  • When Analytics consent is granted: the pageview would include the analytics user-id.

  • When Analytics consent is not granted: the pageview would include a randomized and anonymized id.

Discovery

Discovery is akin to shopping cart behavior and categorized as Strictly Necessary throughout the customer journey as it’s required for the application to function (website + third party booking engines), in compliance with all consent management and privacy regulations.
