How to show the banner only in selected regions (New Version)

Overview


Region visibility is no longer on Legacy Geolocation. Use Settings > Consent model & regions.


You choose whether the banner is visible:


  • Worldwide — every visitor can see the banner (subject to Advanced path rules and bots)
  • Selected regions — only visitors detected in the countries/regions you enable


Consent policy (opt-in vs opt-out) is a separate choice on the same page. See How to set Auto Pilot or a custom consent model per region (New Version).


Shopify Customer Privacy also influences sale-of-data and some tracking. Keep Shopify regions aligned with Pandectes.


New Banner. For stores with the New version badge on Settings > Banner. On the Legacy Banner, see How to switch to the new banner or switch back to the previous version.


Before you start


  • Confirm the store is on the New Banner.
  • Do not use Settings > Geolocation for New Banner stores.


For Legacy stores, see Geolocation and Select regions for our cookie banner (Legacy).


Set worldwide or selected regions


  1. Open Shopify Admin > Apps > Pandectes GDPR Compliance.
  2. Go to Settings > Consent model & regions.
  3. For all visitors, enable Worldwide visibility.
  4. To limit the banner, turn worldwide off and use Regions visibility.
  5. Select countries/regions on Recommended and Rest of the world as needed.

What is not controlled here



Verify


  1. Open the storefront in a private window.
  2. Compare an EU location (VPN or market) with a region you did not select.
  3. Confirm the banner appears only where you enabled visibility.


Location is approximate. VPNs and corporate networks can show the wrong region. Test with more than one method when the result looks wrong.
