Conversion Tracking and Privacy | Yext Hitchhikers Platform

What You’ll Learn

In this section, you will learn:

• How Yext’s product respects user privacy
• Steps you will take to ensure you are protecting your users’ data

Overview

By default, Yext products such as Search and Pages do not track personal data and do not drop cookies on users. Cookies are only used when Conversion Tracking has been enabled.

Yext’s Conversion Tracking feature allows you to see the interactions that consumers have with your use of Yext’s products, such as Yext Search, and how those interactions impact consumers’ actions with your business. More specifically, with the help of persistent cookies, Conversion Tracking allows you to follow your performance in terms of clicks and conversions, where you define what constitutes a conversion. Accordingly, you voluntarily decide to set up and use Conversion Tracking. For clients subject to European data privacy laws, including Switzerland and the United Kingdom, you will be the data controller when using Conversion Tracking.

For more details, see Yext’s Product Terms , or our Data Processing Agreement .
