The last months we have been working hard on our full service GDPR plugin for WordPress, and yesterday we have released the free version of the Complianz GDPR WordPress plugin. This plugin is meant for website owners with visitors in the European Union, who want to comply with the new GDPR privacy regulations.
There are a lot of cookie warning plugins around, and a lot GDPR tools available, but Complianz GDPR provides the website owner not only with a cookie warning (only if needed), but also with a legally validated set of documents as required by these new laws, like a privacy policy, cookie policy etc.
I also notice a lot of these plugins do not actively block cookies when a users declines, or does not accept. In my opinion, this is the point of the cookie warning: that you can accept the cookies, or not. If the cookies are placed anyway, there’s no point in warning.
The plugin includes a wizard,, which can tell you if you need a cookie warning, and if so will add it to your website (style configurable). To do this you need to answer some questions, and the plugin will scan your site foor cookies and social services.
The cookie warning will also actively block the placing of cookies on the front-end, also from third party services like Facebook, Linkedin, Google, etc.
A unique feature of this plugin is that it can generate a legally validated cookie policy, customised for your site. Check out our new plugin, and let us know what you think!
