The Laws page in Secure Privacy provides a breakdown of your website visitors by geographic region — mapped to the applicable privacy regulations for each area. This snapshot helps you understand which localized compliance modules to enable, how many visitors fall under GDPR, LGPD, PIPEDA, THPDPA, and other frameworks, and where your compliance coverage may have gaps.
Who Is This For?
Website administrators monitoring visitor traffic by region to determine which privacy regulations apply to their audience
Compliance officers reviewing geographic compliance coverage and identifying which modules need to be activated
Privacy teams and marketers understanding which international data protection laws govern their website's visitor base
How to Access the Laws Page
Log in to your Secure Privacy account. From the dashboard, select Domains and click the domain you want to review. Navigate to the Laws section to view the visitor breakdown by regulation.
Laws Page Metrics Explained
GDPR — European Union Visitors
This figure represents the number of visitors from EU member states and the European Economic Area. The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) governs data protection and privacy for these visitors — making it the most widely applicable regulation for websites with international audiences. If this number is significant, ensure your GDPR compliance module is active and your cookie banner targets EU visitors.
LGPD — Brazilian Visitors
This figure represents visitors from Brazil. The Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados (LGPD) — Brazil's data protection law — governs how personal data from Brazilian users is collected, processed, and stored. Businesses serving Brazilian visitors should ensure the LGPD compliance module is enabled in Secure Privacy.
THPDPA — Thai Visitors
This figure represents visitors from Thailand. Thailand's Personal Data Protection Act (THPDPA) establishes the privacy rights of Thai internet users and imposes obligations on organizations that process their personal data. Monitor this metric to determine whether enabling a Thailand-specific compliance module is appropriate for your audience.
PIPEDA — Canadian Visitors
This figure represents visitors from Canada. The Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) regulates how private-sector organizations collect, use, and disclose personal information during commercial activities. Monitoring Canadian visitor counts helps you assess whether PIPEDA compliance is a priority for your website.
Other — All Remaining Regions
The Other category captures visitors from regions not specifically covered by GDPR, LGPD, THPDPA, or PIPEDA in the Laws page breakdown. This may include visitors from countries with their own data protection frameworks — such as California (CCPA/CPRA), the UK (UK GDPR), or other jurisdictions. Review your Secure Privacy template configuration to ensure appropriate compliance coverage for your full visitor geography.
Summary
The Laws page gives you a data-driven view of your website's international compliance obligations — mapping visitor traffic to the regulations that govern each region. Use this information to prioritize which Secure Privacy compliance modules to activate, identify coverage gaps, and ensure your cookie consent banner is correctly targeting all visitor segments subject to privacy law requirements.
Frequently Asked Questions
What should I do if I see a large number of visitors under a region I haven't configured a compliance module for?
Navigate to your Secure Privacy Templates section and enable the appropriate compliance template for that region. For example, if you have significant Brazilian traffic, enable the LGPD template and configure its targeting settings. Without an active compliance module for a region, those visitors may not be shown a cookie banner — creating a compliance gap.
Why are some visitors counted under "Other" rather than a named regulation?
The named regulation categories — GDPR, LGPD, THPDPA, and PIPEDA — cover specific geographic regions. Visitors from countries not mapped to these frameworks are grouped under Other. This includes visitors from the US (CCPA), UK, Australia, and many other jurisdictions. Review the Other count alongside your active compliance modules to determine whether additional regional templates should be enabled.
How frequently is the Laws page data updated?
The Laws page reflects data based on your most recent scan and consent tracking records. Visitor counts update as new consent interactions are recorded across your domains. For the most current view, ensure your Secure Privacy script is correctly installed and active on all pages.
