Analytics / Digital marketing Google Analytics / Adwords TLTR Privacy policy rules for Google Analytics https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/7318509?hl=en&ref_topic=1008008 Privacy policy rules for Google Remarketing policy https://support.google.com/adwords/answer/2549063?hl=en EU Cookie law - http://ec.europa.eu/ipg/basics/legal/cookies/index_en.htm The EU Cookie Law requires any website owned in the EU or targeted towards EU citizens to get consent from visitors to store or retrieve any information on a computer, smartphone or tablet. CMS –policies are in the footer > Privacy Policy (http://www.uh.edu/policies/privacy/) In the interest of knowledge sharing I wanted to quickly discuss a few policies. Who is not in the CMS?
A way for anyone to easily build simple web forms in the CMS Form Builder Widget
How are forms used on your website? Why are you collecting information? What information are you collecting? Is it PII (Personally Identifiable Information)? https://www.gsa.gov/reference/gsa-privacy-program/rules-and-policies-protecting-pii-privacy-act PII info must be handled securely through UIT If using third-party, vendor protocols must be reviewed and approved by UIT
How are forms put on your website? Handwritten code? Third-party form wizard? Linking to an external form? Asking UIT or Web Marketing for help?
How are form submissions received? Email? Google spreadsheet? Something more secure?
There’s got to be a better way Insert hilarious infomercial fail GIF here What would be the ideal solution for the CMS?
