Impressum

Opis

Once legal requirements change, Impressum will update your legal content either on its own or asks for your help if the changes can’t be made automatically.

Najczęściej zadawane pytania

Why would I need an imprint on my website?

In certain countries like Germany and Austria, the law requires some website owners to add their contact information to their sites.

But there are online generators for that

Yes, and they are great. But adding an imprint generator directly to your WordPress install makes it pretty easy for you to stay up to date.

How do I use Impressum?

After you install and activate Impressum we will kindly ask you to populate some form fields with all the data you are legally required to add to your imprint. Impressum will guide you through this process.

By adding the „Imprint” block anywhere on your site, you can choose where to output your imprint. Alternatively, you can use the shortcode [impressum].

After this initial setup, Impressum just sits in your installation and serves your imprint. Once legal requirements change, Impressum will notify you about necessary changes.

Can I really use this plugin free of charge?

Yes. Impressum is and always will be available for free. However, if your site is legally operated by a legal entity who’s not an individual person, you must install Impressum Plus, in order to use all fields necessary for your legal entity. Get it from here: https://impressum.plus/en/.

Does Impressum share any of my data? (GDPR)

No. Impressum keeps all your data inside your own WordPress install. There is no data transmitted to us or a third party service. But of course the „Imprint” block or the '[impressum]’ shortcode will be displayed publicly on your website.

Is Impressum compatible with the WP block editor „Gutenberg”?

Yes. Since version 2.0.0 there is a block „Imprint” for this exact purpose.

Finger weg Rausgeschmissen Geld. Hab IMPRESSUM Plus gekauft. Und das teil taugt null, null. den text den ich da eingebe positioniert die am über ein shortcut auf die Seite im dem den sc einsetzt. Ich frage mich was das für einen Sinn hat. Dann trag ich doch den Text gleich auf die Seite. Wofür brauche ich so ein Schwachsinn.

Whenever I set up a new website, first thing I do is to add a page for imprint and privacy policy. With this plugin I don’t have to detour to one of the usual imprint generators and can directly insert all necessary information into the input fields of the plugin. The input masks are well structured, everything is clear and simple. That Impressum „will update your legal texts either on it’s own or asks for your help if the changes can’t be made automatically” (as the readme claims) is an excellent service. Amazing, that this is free for freelancers. With an additional option field to „show a little love” I would be happy to add a link to the plugin to my webpages.

Everything works exactly as promised and the support is excellent. With this plugin you are on the safe side regarding German imprints.
