Squarespace Integration Guide

Welcome to our guide on integrating Concord into Squarespace. We make it easy to integrate Concord into your Squarespace website in just a few minutes and this guide will help you get up and running quickly. This guide includes the following information:

• Initial Concord configuration.
• Google Consent Mode V2 configuration.
• Integrating Concord into Squarespace.

‍

Getting Started With Concord

As part of the initial onboarding process that occurs when you set up a new organization or project in Concord, you will be able to choose your preferred consent settings, including the Consent Mode (Implied vs. Express), the Blocking mode (how trackers like cookies, scripts, iframes, etc. are processed and blocked), the Google Consent Mode V2 setting (we recommend Basic mode for most companies), the Consent Duration (how long consent lasts), and other options (Sensitive Information consent, Do Not Sell, Global Privacy Control, etc.).

During that process, we provide sensible defaults that are recommended as the default global settings, but those settings can always be adjusted and additional regions can also be added and customized later in all paid plans.

For more details on this process or to complete it for the first time, please follow the instructions in this guide: https://www.concord.tech/docs/getting-started

Our Google Consent Mode V2 integration allows websites to adjust how and when data is shared with Google based on user consent collected via the Concord Consent Banner & Privacy Center. To learn more about Google Consent Mode V2 and the recommended settings, please refer to this document: https://www.concord.tech/docs/understanding-configuring-google-consent-mode-gcm-v2

Integrating Concord Into Squarespace

The final step is to Integrate Concord into Squarespace, which can typically be done in just a few minutes. Please follow the instructions below to complete this part of the process:

1. Login to your Concord organization and go to Deployment → Integrations → Embed Concord and copy the Direct Embed Code for the project you want to add to Squarespace(projects can be changed via the Projects selector in the page header if needed).

2. Login to your Squarespace account.

3. Open the Code Injection panel.

• Note: Code injection is a Premium Feature in Squarespace that is only available in Business and Commerce plans.

4. Add the Concord code you copied above via the header Code Injection field.

• Note: The Concord script should always go above any other custom code to ensure that Concord runs first.
• Note: Concord code should be placed exactly as copied above. Adding async or defer to the code can cause issues with compliance due to timing.

5. After adding your code, click Save.

6. Go back to Concord to verify your integration under Deployment → Integrations → Embed Concord. If successfully added and published via Squarespace you should see the following:

Congratulations. You have successfully integrated Concord into Squarespace and any future changes to your attached project in Concord will be automatically synced to your website.
