It displays related ads and links monetised through ad networks.

Arsys Domain Parking is the holding page shown by Spanish hosting provider Arsys (Grupo United Internet) for domains that have been registered or transferred but do not yet point to a real website. The page typically displays the domain name, generic search box, and contextual advertising provided by partner networks such as Google AdSense for Domains, Sedo or Bodis. Many parking pages are still online for years and accumulate traffic that triggers GDPR and ePrivacy obligations. ## **What the parking page does** When a visitor types the domain, Arsys returns a static HTML page hosted on its Spanish infrastructure. The page injects scripts from one or more ad partners that show contextual ads, search results or related links. The domain owner shares the resulting advertising revenue with Arsys or with the partner ad network. The page also includes a small Arsys branded banner inviting the owner to activate hosting or email. ## **Cookies and data collected** The ad scripts load from third party domains and set cookies on those domains. Typical entries include Google's NID, IDE and \_\_Secure-3PSID cookies for AdSense for Domains, Sedo cookies for tracking impressions, and Bodis cookies for revenue attribution. The page also reads the user IP, user agent, referrer, and the keyword the user typed. ## **GDPR and ePrivacy implications** The Spanish DPA (AEPD) has fined several publishers for parking pages that loaded ads without consent. Cookies set by Google AdSense for Domains, Sedo or Bodis are not strictly necessary and require prior consent under Article 22 LSSI-CE (transposing Article 5(3) ePrivacy). The domain holder remains controller for the parking page even when the ad network operates the slot. ## **Data transfers** Arsys itself hosts the static page in Spain, but the ad partners that monetise the page typically transfer data to the United States. Google AdSense for Domains and Sedo participate in the EU-US Data Privacy Framework. Bodis and other smaller networks rely on Standard Contractual Clauses. A Transfer Impact Assessment is recommended if traffic is significant. ## **How to make a parked domain compliant** Replace the default ad enabled parking with a static ads free placeholder if you do not need the revenue. If you keep monetisation, deploy a Consent Management Platform compatible with the IAB TCF on the parking page itself, gate the ad scripts behind consent, and publish a minimal privacy notice that names the ad partners. Otherwise, redirect the domain to a real website that already implements consent. Compliance ## Arsys Domain Parking and the GDPR Arsys Domain Parking is classified as “Marketing”. On a site that targets European visitors, it must only load after the visitor consents, and it must be listed in your cookie policy. - Legal basis Consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and Art. 5(3) ePrivacy Directive) - Risk level medium - Applicable regulations GDPR, ePrivacy Directive, LSSI-CE, AEPD guidance on cookies ### Impact assessment (DPIA) A formal DPIA is not required for the parking page itself, but it can be useful when the domain is part of a wider portfolio that systematically monetises EU traffic. Document the third party ad partners loaded on the page, the consent mechanism (or its absence), and the retention applied by Arsys to access logs. ### Sample text for your banner > This page is a parking page operated by Arsys and includes ads from third party networks (Google AdSense for Domains, Sedo, Bodis). These ads set cookies and transfer your IP to advertising partners in the EU and the United States. We load them only after you accept the advertising category in the cookie banner. Cookies and trackers ## What Arsys Domain Parking sets and contacts - Tracking method Server hosted parking page with banner ads, monetisation cookies and ad SDK loaded from Arsys partners - Server location Spain (Arsys Internet S.L., Logroño and Madrid datacentres) - Data transferred outside the EU Arsys Domain Parking is hosted in Spain (EU). However, the parking page integrates ad partners (Google AdSense for Domains, Sedo, Bodis) that transfer impression and click data to the United States. Transfers rely on the EU-US Data Privacy Framework for participating ad partners and on Standard Contractual Clauses for the rest. ### Cookies set (5) | Name | Type | Duration | Purpose | | ------------- | ------------ | --------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | | PHPSESSID | http\_cookie | Session | Generic PHP session cookie set by the Arsys parking template to maintain visitor state. | | NID | http\_cookie | 6 months | Google cookie set by AdSense for Domains used to deliver and measure ads on the parking page. | | IDE | http\_cookie | 13 months | DoubleClick cookie set when an AdSense for Domains ad is shown, used for ad targeting and frequency capping. | | sedo\_tracker | http\_cookie | 30 days | Sedo cookie used to track impressions, clicks and revenue attribution on parked domains. | | bodis\_id | http\_cookie | 30 days | Bodis cookie used for monetisation analytics on parked domains. | ### Third-party domains contacted (5) - `parking.arsys.es` - `syndication.google.com` - `googleads.g.doubleclick.net` - `sedoparking.com` - `bodis.com` Questions ## Frequently asked questions about Arsys Domain Parking Can't find your question? Write to us, we answer fast. [Write to us](https://www.flowconsent.com/en/demo) ### What cookies does the Arsys parking page set? The page itself sets few cookies (typically a small session cookie set by Arsys). The bulk of cookies come from the embedded ad networks (Google AdSense for Domains, Sedo, Bodis): typically NID, IDE and \_\_Secure-3PSID for Google, plus impression and click tracking cookies for the other networks. ### Does Arsys Domain Parking require consent? Yes. The ad scripts loaded on the parking page set non strictly necessary cookies and process personal data such as IP addresses, so Article 5(3) ePrivacy and Article 22 LSSI-CE require prior consent. Without consent, the parking page can only display a static placeholder without ads. ### Who is the controller for the parking page? The domain holder remains controller for the page. Arsys acts as a hosting processor, and the ad networks act as independent controllers or joint controllers for the advertising data. Document this allocation in your record of processing activities. ### Are data transferred outside the EU? Arsys hosts the page in Spain, but the ad networks usually transfer impression and click data to the United States. Google AdSense for Domains and Sedo participate in the EU-US Data Privacy Framework. Bodis and smaller networks rely on Standard Contractual Clauses. ### Do I need a DPIA? Not usually for a single parked domain. A DPIA becomes relevant when a portfolio of domains systematically monetises European traffic, or when the ad networks involved trigger DPIA criteria from the EDPB guidelines. ### How do I make a parked domain compliant? Either replace the default ad enabled parking with a static page without ads, or deploy a CMP on the parking page itself, gate the ad scripts behind consent, and publish a short privacy notice with the list of ad partners and their roles. ### Are there alternatives to Arsys Domain Parking? Most registrars offer an ads free parking page on request. Alternatively, redirect the domain to a real corporate site, set up a single page landing on your own server, or use a CMS like WordPress or a static site host like Vercel for full control. ### How do I update my cookie policy? Add a section that names the parking page, lists the cookies set by Arsys and by each ad partner with their lifetime and purpose, mentions the international transfer to the US, and explains how the visitor can withdraw consent. Link to each partner's privacy policy.
