iPresta

iPresta is an Iranian provider of PrestaShop modules, hosting, and store services. Its components set functional cookies for the storefront and can add analytics, and because it is operated from Iran it raises significant international data transfer concerns under the GDPR.

Overview

What does iPresta do?

What iPresta is

iPresta is an Iranian company that provides modules, hosting, and services for PrestaShop based online stores. Its modules add features to the storefront and checkout, and depending on the module they can process customer and order data and load scripts from iPresta infrastructure.

What data and cookies iPresta collects

iPresta modules set functional cookies that keep the storefront and cart working, and some can add analytics or marketing cookies. They may process customer details entered during a purchase along with browsing data, all of which can be personal data under the GDPR.

GDPR, ePrivacy and data transfers

Functional store cookies can be exempt under Article 5(3) ePrivacy, while analytics and marketing cookies require consent. The central concern is that iPresta is operated from Iran, a country with no EU adequacy decision and an elevated risk profile, so any personal data sent there is a third country transfer needing Standard Contractual Clauses and a careful transfer impact assessment.

Consent requirements

Block analytics and marketing cookies until the visitor consents, and load only the strictly necessary store cookies by default. Because the Iran transfer is sensitive, minimise the personal data any iPresta module sends abroad and inform customers clearly in your privacy notice.

Practical compliance steps

Map which iPresta modules send data outside the EU, put Standard Contractual Clauses in place, and complete a documented transfer impact assessment. Prefer self hosted or EU hosted components where possible, disclose the transfer, set short retention, and review whether the residual risk is acceptable.

Compliance

iPresta and the GDPR

iPresta is classified as “Preferences”. 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
Contract under Article 6(1)(b) for store functions and consent under Article 6(1)(a) plus Article 5(3) ePrivacy for analytics and marketing cookies
Risk level
high
Applicable regulations
GDPR, ePrivacy Directive

Impact assessment (DPIA)

Because iPresta involves a transfer to Iran, a high risk jurisdiction without adequacy, a transfer impact assessment is essential and a DPIA is strongly recommended where customer data is involved. Reconsider the components if the residual risk cannot be reduced.

Questions

Frequently asked questions about iPresta

Can't find your question? Write to us, we answer fast.

What cookies does iPresta set?

iPresta modules set functional cookies for the storefront and cart, and some modules add analytics or marketing cookies. Only the store cookies are strictly necessary; the rest need consent.

Is consent required for iPresta?

The functional store cookies can rely on the ePrivacy exemption, but any analytics or marketing cookies require prior consent and must stay blocked until the visitor accepts them.

What is the legal basis for iPresta?

Store functions rely on performance of a contract under Article 6(1)(b), while analytics and marketing cookies rely on consent under Article 6(1)(a) and Article 5(3) ePrivacy. The Iran transfer needs its own safeguard.

Does iPresta transfer data to a third country?

Yes. iPresta is operated from Iran, which has no EU adequacy decision and is high risk. Any personal data sent there needs Standard Contractual Clauses, a transfer impact assessment, and clear disclosure, with data minimised.

Is a DPIA needed for iPresta?

Yes, it is strongly recommended where customer data is involved. The transfer to Iran raises elevated risk, so document a transfer impact assessment and a DPIA and reconsider the components if the risk stays high.

How do I implement iPresta compliantly?

Block non essential cookies until consent, map the modules that send data abroad, put Standard Contractual Clauses in place, complete a transfer impact assessment, minimise data, and prefer EU hosted components.

Are there alternatives to iPresta?

EU based PrestaShop modules and hosting keep data within the EEA and avoid the high risk transfer, which is the cleanest way to reduce exposure for customer data.

How do I update my cookie policy for iPresta?

List the iPresta functional, analytics, and marketing cookies with their purpose and duration, state that data may be transferred to Iran, and name the safeguard relied upon. Review the transfer regularly.
