3 min read
You can add Wix Forms to your site to receive explicit consent from your site visitors before processing their data.
Step 1 | Adding and setting up your form
Using Wix Forms you can add a form to your site to collect information from your visitors. You can set up and design your form to match your site's style.
Wix Editor
Wix Studio
- Click Add
on the left side of the editor. - Click Contact & Forms.
- Scroll through the available form templates and drag the one you want onto your site.
- Click Edit Form.
- Click Settings and add a form name to your form.
Step 2 | Adding an explicit consent checkbox
You can receive explicit consent by adding a "Terms of Use" checkbox to your form. Visitors are required to select the checkbox before they can click Submit. Add a link to your "Terms of Use" page so that visitors can read them.
- Click the form in your editor.
- Click Edit Form.
- Under Add form fields, click Checkbox.
- Click the checkbox in your editor and edit the following:
- Add a Field message: This is the text that appears next to the checkbox (e.g., I accept the terms & conditions).
- Add a Link: Edit the link text and click the Link icon
to choose your Terms of Use link page. - Enable the Required toggle: Choose whether this is a required field or not. If you require explicit consent before your visitor clicks Submit, enable the Required toggle.
Tips:
- Click the form in your editor and click Settings. Use the Layout
and Design 
icons to change the way your form looks (size, colors, fonts etc.). - You can connect your Wix Form to your contacts.
