## Description
**ComplianceKit** is a GDPR compliance platform for websites. This plugin connects
your WordPress site to your ComplianceKit dashboard, automatically injecting a fully-
compliant cookie consent banner — no theme editing required.
**Features:**
* One-field setup — paste your embed code and save
* Automatic script injection into `` via WordPress hooks (no theme editing)
* Google Consent Mode v2 support (ad_storage, analytics_storage, ad_user_data,
ad_personalization)
* Persistent “Manage Cookie Preferences” floating button built into the widget
* Optional footer link for visitors to re-open consent settings (GDPR Article 7(
3))
* Granular consent categories: Necessary, Analytics, Marketing, Functional
* Consent records stored and exportable for DPA audits
* DSAR (Data Subject Access Request) management in your dashboard
* Static widget JS served via CDN — zero serverless cost per page load
**What you need:**
A free ComplianceKit account at [compliancekit.tech](https://www.compliancekit.tech).
The free plan covers one website with basic consent collection.
### External Services
This plugin connects to **ComplianceKit** (https://www.compliancekit.tech), a third-
party GDPR compliance service. This connection is the core purpose of the plugin—
without it, the plugin does nothing.
**What happens when the plugin is active:**
When a visitor loads any page on your site, their browser fetches a JavaScript file
from ComplianceKit’s CDN (`www.compliancekit.tech/widget.js`). This file renders
the cookie consent banner and records the visitor’s consent decision.
**Data sent to ComplianceKit:**
* A randomly generated visitor ID (not linked to any personal identifier)
* The visitor’s consent preferences (which cookie categories they accepted or declined)
* The timestamp of the consent decision
* The widget version displayed
IP addresses are processed temporarily for security purposes and are not stored
long-term.
**This connection is required.** The plugin cannot function without a ComplianceKit
account and an active connection to the service.
