Common Mistakes
- 1 Enabling visitor identification and profiling before obtaining consent, treating it as a basic chat widget
- 2 Not disclosing that the chat tool also identifies visitors using CRM and reverse-IP data
- 3 Storing chat transcripts with personal data without defining appropriate retention periods
Compliance Considerations
Identifies B2B website visitors using Salesforce CRM data and IP-based account matching. The chat widget collects conversation data and browsing behaviour. Consent approach depends on implementation — account identification involves personal data processing. The chat function may be considered functional, but visitor identification and profiling requires a lawful basis.

Intercom
High Intercom
Intercom is a customer messaging and engagement platform that provides live chat, chatbots, product tours, and targeted in-app messages. Its JavaScript snippet loads a messenger widget on the website and collects visitor behaviour data including page views, session duration, and custom events, which are used to trigger automated messages and segment users. Intercom is widely deployed on SaaS products, fintech platforms, and customer-facing portals where real-time support is valued. From a governance perspective, Intercom occupies a complex position because it straddles customer support (which may be essential) and marketing automation (which requires consent), and the same tag often serves both purposes simultaneously.
