Why These Exclusions Are Important

• Compliance with Dynamic Content: The scripts hosted on .consentframework.com and .abconsent.net are geolocated and dynamic, meaning they adapt to the user’s location and preferences. Caching or delaying these scripts can result in incorrect or outdated content being served.

• Regulatory Compliance: These scripts are essential for ensuring compliance with evolving privacy laws. Any interference through caching or optimization can lead to regulatory violations or loss of functionality.

By following these steps, WP Rocket will exclude the specified hosts from caching and JavaScript optimizations, ensuring proper functionality and compliance.
