Description
FixGDPR is the easiest way to make your WordPress site GDPR compliant. Simply install the plugin, connect your site with a free FixGDPR account, and you’re done.
FixGDPR automatically scans your site for cookies and trackers, displays a fully customizable consent banner, and blocks scripts until visitors give consent — no coding required.
Features
- Consent Banner — Lightweight, accessible, and fully customizable cookie consent banner that works out of the box.
- Cookie Auto-Blocking — Automatically detects and blocks cookies and third-party trackers until the visitor provides consent.

- Compliance Scanner — Scans your site for GDPR compliance issues and provides actionable recommendations.
- Privacy Policy Generator — Generate a GDPR-compliant privacy policy tailored to your site.
- Lightweight — The banner script is under 20KB gzipped and loads asynchronously, so it won’t slow down your site.
- Accessible — Fully keyboard navigable and screen reader friendly, meeting WCAG 2.1 AA standards.
- Multi-language — Automatically detects your visitor’s language and displays the banner in their preferred language.
How It Works
- Install and activate the FixGDPR plugin.
- Sign up for a free account at fixgdpr.com.
- Copy your Site ID from the FixGDPR dashboard.
- Paste the Site ID into the plugin settings and enable the banner.
- The consent banner is now active on your site.
External services
When enabled, this plugin loads the consent banner script from https://fixgdpr.com on each public page view. A free FixGDPR account and a Site ID are required.
When the request happens: The banner script is loaded from https://fixgdpr.com/banner/<your-site-id>.js only if BOTH of the following are true:
- You have entered a Site ID under Settings → FixGDPR, AND
- You have ticked Enable Consent Banner on the same page.
If either condition is not met, the plugin makes no external request. Administrator pages (wp-admin) never trigger it.
What is sent: Your Site ID is sent to FixGDPR so the correct banner configuration can be returned. Standard HTTP request headers accompany the request. When a visitor interacts with the banner, their consent choice is stored in a first-party cookie on your domain and transmitted to FixGDPR for compliance logging.
How to disable: Untick Enable Consent Banner in Settings → FixGDPR, or uninstall the plugin. Either action stops the external request.

FAQ
-
Do I need a FixGDPR account?
-
Yes. You need a free FixGDPR account to get a Site ID, which connects the consent banner to your site’s compliance configuration. Sign up at fixgdpr.com.
-
Is FixGDPR free?
-
The plugin itself is free and fully functional. It connects to the FixGDPR service, which offers a free tier (1 site, 5,000 pageviews/month) and paid tiers for higher usage and additional features like scheduled scans and AI-powered fix instructions. See fixgdpr.com/pricing for details.
-
Does this plugin slow down my site?
-
No. The consent banner script is under 20KB gzipped and loads asynchronously in the background. It will not affect your page load times or Core Web Vitals scores.
-
Does FixGDPR support Google Consent Mode v2?
-
Yes. FixGDPR has built-in support for Google Consent Mode v2. When a visitor interacts with the consent banner, the appropriate consent signals are automatically sent to Google tags.
-
What happens when I deactivate the plugin?
-
Deactivating the plugin stops the consent banner from appearing on your site but preserves your settings. If you uninstall (delete) the plugin, all settings are removed from the database.
