How remove consent to clarity

[StefanoTesla]

Hello everyone, I'm working to adjust my cookie policy, and I found a problem.

When user accepts cookies, window.clarity('consent'); is fired, but if I change cookie setting, what I have to do for stop clarity cookie??? just deliting the cookie?

[problemgenerator]

+1, this would be a very useful feature. I'm working on a site that uses Cookiebot to manage consent, which allows users to adjust their consent preferences at any time. However once window.clarity('consent') has been called a single time, there seems to be no way to revoke consent.

Edit: Adding a bit more detail to explain why I think this is important. When a user changes their consent preferences and indicates that they no longer consent to tracking cookies, ideally my website should respond by deleting all existing cookies, and ceasing to read/write any cookies.

From my application's JavaScript code I'm able to delete any cookies that Clarity has set on my website's domain, but the Clarity JavaScript library will recreate these cookies after I've deleted them. I'm completely unable to delete any cookies set on the clarity.ms domain, since those are third-party cookies from the point of view of my application's JavaScript code.

Without the ability to inform the Clarity library that cookie consent has been revoked and that cookies should no longer be read/written, I'm not able to ensure that the user's preferences are being respected.

@StefanoTesla , We will consider this as feature request and add it to our product roadmap.

[StefanoTesla]

We Will......it should be already done at the beginning

Nothing?

[ClaritySupport]

@StefanoTesla , Deleting cookies is the only support we have at this point. Will consider this feedback.

@ClaritySupport this is serious! If we don't delete the cookie after user rejecting the consent... then it is a violation of GDPR... and can result in serious action against us!

Even though there is a method called window.clarity('consent', false) (mentioned in your docs here)... it is not working. It did not remove cookies in my system. So kindly help 🙏!

@ClaritySupport any update on this

[VikasDasamaneni16]

@nik32 ,Clarity(‘consent’, false) now is correctly removing cookies.

[nik32]

Screen.Recording.2024-04-03.at.5.30.00.PM.mov

@VikasDasamaneni16 and @ClaritySupport it is still not working (as you can see in the above video... I clicked reject but still the clarity cookies were present)

[ClaritySupport]

@nik32 , Are you calling clarity(‘consent’, false) ? If so, can you share website url to debug there.

[nik32]

@ClaritySupport This is the app link - https://publlish-test.vercel.app/. Its a NextJS App and I am calling window.clarity(‘consent’, false) and window.clarity(‘stop’) on rejection... but the existing cookies are not getting cleared.

[ClaritySupport]

Hi Nik, Are you calling stop before consent maybe? Our engineering team see the cookies deleted upon the consent false call. If you call clarity('stop') before you've cleared consent, then clarity is no longer running and cannot perform an operation like clearing cookies.

Hi @ClaritySupport!
You were indeed correct (I was calling stop before consent)... but even after making the change... I don't see consent-false working. The cookies were still present. You can have a look at the test site again (I have changed the calling order in the code)

[ClaritySupport]

Hi, We can still see cookies getting cleared as expected when we call consent(false) directly. Could you please share how do you trigger your consent preferences popup. We can try it with your implementation if we know how to pop that up.
