Does the "__hs_do_not_track" cookie block anonymous data?

Does setting the __hs_do_not_track cookie block anonymous data collected by the "ptq.gif" tracking pixel and scripts loaded by forms (js.hsleadflows.net)?

Hey @theAndreyK no, according to this post ptq.gif will still track anoymous page views if tracking is blocked. 

leadflows.net is being phased out for webinteractives but both still don't load tracking data. They load forms/CTAs/pop-ups. Tracking is all pulled from the master tracking script. So these will still load their assets if do not track is enabled as they are not tracking scripts.

Hi @TomM2 , 
It looks like the "_ptq.gif" pixel has been removed but I cannot find an official announcement. 

Currently my site is loading both leadflows and web-interactives-embed.js. Is there a way to opt-in to only use the new version? 

Also, I can't find any documentation on web-interactives-embed.js. Do you have any links or additional info about it? 

Thanks,

Andrey

Hey @theAndreyK I don't work for HubSpot so wouldn't be able to say, I just know the scripts they've used. I'm not aware of any opt out available to the script loader scripts. HubSpot doesn't publicly list it's scripts loaded through the script loaders or dependencies for functionality scripts, so it's unlikely they've officially announced a script change. 

It looks like you're a partner though I'd definitely recomend reaching out to your partner manager or HS support to check on that!
