## Description
A **fully self-contained** cookie banner for WordPress — no account, no registration,
no phone-home. The banner logic ships inside the plugin and runs entirely on your
own server.
**What sets it apart from other cookie plugins:** a built-in compliance scanner
that checks your whole website against **14 German and EU laws** — GDPR (DSGVO),
BDSG, TDDDG, DDG, the EU AI Act (KI-VO), BFSG, UWG, BGB, UrhG, VerpackG, ElektroG,
JuSchG, PAngV and VSBG. You see the results directly in your WordPress admin.
#### Features
* **Accept / Reject / Settings** — three clearly balanced buttons, as required
by GDPR Art. 7
* **Google Consent Mode v2** — sends the correct signals to `gtag()` when it is
installed
* **Shopify Customer Privacy API** — syncs with `Shopify.customerPrivacy.setTrackingConsent()`
on WooCommerce-Shopify hybrid setups
* **Configurable categories** — turn Analytics / Marketing / Functional on or off
* **localStorage-based consent** — the plugin sets no cookies of its own and makes
no server calls
* **Light / Dark mode** — respects the visitor’s `prefers-color-scheme`
* **Translation-ready** — ships with German and English, more languages via the
included `.pot` file
#### Pro features (optional)
If you create an account on [dsgvo.pro](https://dsgvo.pro), you can unlock the following
with a SiteID:
* **Compliance score badge** in the banner
* **Unlimited scans** (free tier = one scan on install)
* **Monitoring alerts** — an email when your score drops after a deployment
* **Auto categories** — the plugin derives the categories your site needs from
the scan
Pro runs through the same plugin — just enter your SiteID in the settings.
#### Privacy
In the free version this plugin **sends no data** to external servers. The banner
logic runs entirely locally. The only outbound calls are:
* **Scan button** (optional, only when you click it) -> `POST https://dsgvo.pro/
api/scan/public`
* **Pro activation** (optional, only when you enter a SiteID) -> handshake with`
https://dsgvo.pro/api/banner/`
Details in the [privacy policy](https://dsgvo.pro/datenschutz).

## FAQ
### Do I need an account on dsgvo.pro?
No. The free version works fully without registration. You only need an account
for the Pro features (score badge, monitoring, unlimited scans).
### Does the plugin send data to DSGVO.pro?
No, not in the free version. The banner logic lives locally in the plugin and is
served by your own server. DSGVO.pro is only contacted when you explicitly click
the scan button or enter a Pro SiteID.
### Does it work with WooCommerce / Elementor / Divi / etc.?
Yes. The plugin injects the banner via `wp_enqueue_scripts`, which is compatible
with all themes and page builders.
### Does the banner replace legal advice?
No. The banner provides the technical GDPR compliance of the consent flow. Whether
your website as a whole is GDPR compliant is checked by the built-in scanner — but
that does not replace individual legal advice either.
### I found a bug / have a feature request?
Please reach out via the [DSGVO.pro contact form](https://dsgvo.pro/kontakt) or
in this plugin’s WordPress support forum.
