External services
This plugin relies on external services. Details below are also listed so site
owners know what is contacted and why.
CookiePeak (required for banner functionality)
Service: CookiePeak consent management (https://cookiepeak.com), operated by
FloBa Media.
What it is used for:
* Loading the consent banner script (banner.js) and banner configuration
* Optional OAuth connection from wp-admin to manage websites
* Receiving consent log events and aggregated page-view counts used by CookiePeak
What data is sent and when:
* Frontend (when a Website ID is configured and the banner is enabled): the site
loads banner.js and fetches banner configuration for that Website ID
* When a visitor saves consent choices: consent categories/choices and a hashed
session identifier are sent to the CookiePeak API (raw IP addresses are not stored)
* Aggregated page-view counts for usage metering
* OAuth in wp-admin: authorization code / token exchange and API calls to
list or create websites; access and refresh tokens are stored in the WordPress
database (not publicly)
Legal / privacy links (operator):
* Service: https://cookiepeak.com
* Privacy policy: https://www.floba-media.de/datenschutz
* Legal notice (Impressum / operator terms): https://www.floba-media.de/impressum
Without a Website ID (and with the banner disabled) the plugin does not call
CookiePeak on the public frontend.
Third-party scripts already on your WordPress site
This plugin does not embed or call Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, Meta
Pixel, or similar services by itself. If your theme or other plugins already
output those scripts, CookiePeak may rewrite their script tags so they only run
after the matching consent category is granted. Any data those third-party
scripts transmit is controlled by those providers and by your own site setup,
not by CookiePeak initiating those connections.
Setup
- Install and activate the plugin
- Go to Settings CookiePeak and connect via OAuth, or enter your Website ID
- Done – the banner is injected on frontend pages automatically
Installation
- Upload the plugin ZIP under Plugins Add New Upload Plugin
- Activate the plugin
- Open Plugins CookiePeak Settings (or Settings CookiePeak)
