The stakes are substantial. Non-compliance with regulations like GDPR, CCPA, and LGPD can result in significant penalties, damaged brand reputation, and potential legal issues.
HubSpot's platform uses multiple cookie types:
Each category carries different compliance requirements—functional cookies might be exempt from consent under certain laws, while marketing cookies almost always require explicit permission. Managing these distinctions without a specialized solution quickly becomes unwieldy.
Secure Privacy has developed specific features to address HubSpot's compliance needs while preserving marketing capabilities.

While Secure Privacy handles website cookie compliance, HubSpot offers built-in features that address other privacy aspects:

This creates a comprehensive compliance approach:

No—when properly configured, the integration allows consenting users to be tracked normally while respecting the preferences of those who decline. This preserves valuable analytics data from consenting visitors without compromising compliance.
Marketing automation flows will continue functioning for contacts who provide consent. For visitors who decline marketing cookies, you'll still capture their explicitly submitted information (like form completions) but won't track their broader site behavior.

Secure Privacy's HubSpot integration offers a practical solution to the complex challenge of cookie compliance. By implementing proper consent mechanisms, you not only meet regulatory requirements but also demonstrate respect for visitor privacy—an increasingly important brand differentiator.
The integration preserves HubSpot's powerful marketing capabilities while providing the documentation and user controls needed for compliance across major privacy frameworks. For businesses seeking to minimize regulatory risk without sacrificing marketing effectiveness, it offers a streamlined approach to managing the growing complexity of global privacy requirements.
Most businesses complete the technical integration within an hour. The majority of implementation time involves configuring consent settings, designing your consent UI, and testing across different scenarios. Planning for 2-4 hours total implementation time is reasonable for most HubSpot sites.
No. While the integration helps with cookie consent, you still need a comprehensive privacy policy. Secure Privacy offers a Privacy Policy Generator that creates policies specifically designed for HubSpot sites, but you should have legal counsel review any automatically generated policy.
The impact on page load speed is minimal. The Secure Privacy script is designed to load asynchronously, preventing significant performance impacts. In testing, most sites experience less than 100ms of additional load time with the integration active.
Yes, the integration works across your entire HubSpot environment, including landing pages, blog posts, and main website pages. This ensures consistent compliance across all your HubSpot properties.
The integration remembers user preferences through cookies (ironically). When visitors return to your site, their previous consent choices are applied automatically. You can configure how long these preferences remain valid before requesting renewed consent.
