Heap Analytics Integration Guide

Deploy Consent Shield AI to Heap Analytics with automated pre-consent tracker interception, California CIPA wiretap protection, and zero data loss.


1. Overview & Technical Protocolโ€‹

  • Category: Analytics & CDP
  • Protocol: Heap Snippet: Gated
  • Scope: Retroactive autocapture consent gating rules.
  • Consent Gating: Strict opt-in blocking for EU/ePrivacy; automated GPC / California opt-out enforcement for US states.

2. Step-by-Step Installation & Runbookโ€‹

Step 01: Embed Universal Script Interceptorโ€‹

Inject the Consent Shield AI defense tag into the <head> of your Heap Analytics environment before vendor trackers initialize:

<!-- Consent Shield Universal Interceptor -->
<script
src="https://app.consentshieldai.com/shield.js"
data-site-id="YOUR_SITE_ID"
data-auto-block="true"
data-gpc-enforce="true"
async>
</script>

Step 02: Event Forwarding & Webhook Syncโ€‹

Listen for live consent updates or configure server-side webhooks for Heap Analytics:

window.addEventListener("consentshield:consent_changed", function(e) {
var consent = e.detail;
console.log("[ConsentShield] Syncing updated preferences to Heap Analytics:", consent);
});

Step 03: Verification & Network Auditโ€‹

  1. Open browser Developer Tools (F12 &rarr; Network).
  2. Filter outgoing requests by heap.
  3. Verify that zero unconsented payloads fire prior to visitor affirmation.

3. Cryptographic Ledger & Audit Trailโ€‹

All consent signals for this integration are recorded to the Consent Shield Cryptographic Ledger, providing tamper-proof evidence against statutory wiretap claims (CIPA ยง 631) and regulatory enforcement actions.
