Plugin / Cookie and Consent Solution for the GDPR & ePrivacy by iubenda

Description

This plugin is an All-in-One approach developed by iubenda, which includes functionalities of two powerful solutions (see below) that help to make your website GDPR and ePrivacy compliant. The plugin lets you automate the implementation of ePrivacy (Cookie Law) and GDPR requirements by providing a fully customizable cookie banner, blocking scripts, and by managing all aspects of cookie consent. It also allows you to record, review, and maintain comprehensive GDPR records of consent for your web-forms.

Cookie Solution

This plugin drastically reduces the need for direct interventions in the code of the site by integrating with iubenda’s Cookie Solution. It provides a fully customizable cookie banner, dynamically generates a cookie policy to match the services in use on your site, and, fully manages cookie-related consent – including the blocking of the most common widgets and third-party cookies before consent is received – in order to comply with the GDPR and ePrivacy.

Key features:

• The plugin automatically inserts the iubenda code in the head of every page of the site
• Allows you to automatically or manually block scripts that can install cookies prior to consent, without the need of direct intervention on the code
• Asynchronously re-activates cookie scripts once consent is collected.
• Handles the display of the cookie banner and cookie policy, allowing you to fully customize the banner to match the look and colors of your site if needed
• Saves user preferences about the use of cookies and displays a clean page (without banner) to users who have already provided their consent
• Integrates with IAB’s Transparency and Consent Framework (TCF)
• Features an easy-to-use interface for entering custom scripts and iframes
• Detects bots/spiders and serves them a clean page so that your SEO efforts are never compromised

Consent Solution

Maintaining valid records of consent is a vital part of privacy compliance in general, and it is specifically required under the GDPR. These records should include a userid, timestamp, consent proof, record of the consenting action, and the legal documents available to the user at the time of consent, among other things. This plugin is THE most complete solution for recording, sorting and maintaining GDPR records of consent. The plugin also boasts built-in compatibility with WordPress comment form, Contact Form 7 and WP Forms plugins for your convenience, but can be manually integrated with any type of web-form and can even store consent proofs for consents collected offline (e.g in-store sign-ups) via WP media upload.

Key features:

• The plugin detects and identifies all supported forms that are embedded in the website
• It’s auto-compatible with and allows super easy mapping of Contact Form 7, WP Forms, WordPress comment and WooCommerce checkout forms
• It allows manual integration with any type of web-form
• For each consent, track the form/wording the user was prompted with
• Flexibly upload any form of proof of consent or legal notice, including a PDF if consent was collected offline
• It provides a high granularity: map individual form fields, exclude fields (like password inputs), add legal notices available at the time of consent collection, indicate double opt-in, set preferences and more
• REST HTTP API and JS SDK, to give you total control and how and when consent is stored
• Store multiple preferences for each user (e.g. if you have multiple newsletters or opt-ins)
• Features an easy-to-use interface for entering custom scripts and iframes
• It provides API input field for quick and easy activation

Some background information

If you potentially have any European users, you must comply with laws like the GDPR and ePrivacy. These laws are precise in their requirements and technical implementation can be pretty complicated. We’ve tried to make this process as painless as possible for website and app owners with our suite of compliance software solutions.
Our Cookie and Consent Solution plugin for WordPress simplifies and manages these compliance requirements within a few clicks. This extension works with the iubenda Cookie Solution and Consent Solution.
