Najczęściej zadawane pytania
-
Does this plugin guarantee GDPR compliance?
-
No. The plugin helps website owners create and manage important privacy, cookie, complaint and data request processes, but every business is different and legal advice may still be required.
-
The free plugin provides a cookie banner and lightweight consent logging. It does not automatically block scripts loaded by other plugins, themes, Google Tag Manager or hard-coded header scripts. Advanced cookie script loading is intended for the Pro version.
-
Does it keep records?
-
Yes. The free plugin keeps basic logs of consent choices, complaints, data requests and opt-out submissions. The Pro version is designed to add enhanced records and CSV export options.
-
Does it use SMTP?
-
The plugin uses the standard WordPress mail function. For better reliability, we recommend using a trusted SMTP plugin or transactional email service on your WordPress website.
-
What are the privacy page display modes?
-
The plugin includes display modes to help the generated privacy page work with different WordPress themes. Theme default uses your normal theme layout. Plugin Default helps create a cleaner plugin-controlled layout where needed. Plugin Standalone provides a simpler standalone layout for themes that make the page difficult to display correctly.
-
Yes. The cookie banner can be turned on or off from the plugin settings.
-
Is there a paid version?
-
Yes. A Pro version is available from https://privacytools.uk/product/pro/ for users who need advanced tools such as enhanced exports, advanced cookie script loading, richer records, additional snippets and priority support.
-
Do I need the free plugin installed before using Pro?
-
Yes. The Pro version is designed as an add-on for the free plugin. Please install and activate the free plugin before installing the Pro version.
-
Yes. When the cookie banner is enabled, the generated Privacy and GDPR Policy page includes a Change cookie settings button so visitors can reopen the banner and update their preferences.
-
Can I use one Pro licence on multiple websites?
-
No. One Pro licence is for one WordPress website only.
