Lead Scoring creates automated profiles based on visitor behavior (Art. 22 GDPR — Profiling).

Legal Basis

You can choose between two options:

Consent (Art. 6 (1) lit. a) — recommended

  • Score is calculated only if the visitor has consented to tracking in the widget
  • No tracking consent = only profile score (max ~15 points)
  • Full transparency for the visitor

Legitimate Interest (Art. 6 (1) lit. f)

  • Score is always calculated
  • Visitors have a right to object
  • You must document an interest balancing test

Three Consent Levels
