Regions / Geo-targeting
One of the powerful features of CookieHub is the ability to customize the user interface and options based on the user's location. This feature, called "Regions", allows you to create different behaviors and consent methods for specific geographic regions.
Regions can be defined as a country, US state, or a group of countries based on continent or cookie/privacy requirements. You can configure the behavior and consent method for each region directly in the CookieHub dashboard.
In addition to specific countries and states, you can use three pre-defined groups as described below.
By leveraging the Regions feature, you can ensure that your website is compliant with different data privacy regulations in specific geographic areas, providing a better user experience for your audience.
