# Global Privacy Control - GPC

**Pandectes GDPR Compliance is capable of respecting consent preferences that are communicated using a Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal.**

### What is Global Privacy Control?

Global Privacy Control (GPC) is a specification designed to allow Internet users to automatically notify businesses of their privacy preferences and is configured using a setting or extension in the user’s browser or device.

The [GPC specification](https://globalprivacycontrol.org/#gpc-spec) defines the format of the signal which can be interpreted by consent platforms and websites to automatically set a user's consent preferences and opt them out of data sales and sharing.

### Configuring GPC support

Global Privacy Control is always enabled in Pandectes GDPR Compliance within the Settings > Integrations, as shown in the following figure:

In the integrations page, there exists a line for globalPrivacyControl. 

If you use the [Do not sell my data](https://help.pandectes.io/en/article/adding-the-do-not-sell-my-data-page-ctsx99/) page then based on GPC preference the associated choice is being send to this page as well.
