## Description

Merqivio EU Compliance helps store owners organise and check important EU product-
compliance information directly inside WordPress.

The free plugin is independently usable. It does not require a Merqivio account,
license key, subscription or Merqivio API.

#### Free features

 * Local EU Compliance dashboard and score.
 * Checks manufacturer-information completeness.
 * Checks EU responsible person / economic operator information.
 * Checks safety information and warnings.
 * Checks product identification / SKU availability.
 * DPP-readiness fields.
 * Product-edit fields for the relevant compliance information.
 * Optional display of completed product-compliance information on product pages.
 * Optional display of the official EU harmonised legal-guarantee notice.
 * Six manually selectable interface languages: English, Dutch, German, French, 
   Spanish and Italian.
 * Fresh installations always start in English.
 * No scan results, product data or visitor analytics are sent to Merqivio.

This plugin provides technical assistance and structured fields. It is not legal
advice and does not guarantee that a business, product or website satisfies every
applicable legal requirement.

#### Official EU legal-guarantee notice

Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2025/1960 applies from 27 September 2026.
The harmonised legal-guarantee notice has fixed content and design requirements.

When an administrator explicitly enables this feature, WordPress downloads the official,
unmodified notice once from the European Union Your Europe website and stores it
locally in the site’s Media Library. Visitors are then served the local copy.

The plugin does not recreate, edit or brand the official notice.

### External services

This plugin does not use a Merqivio external service.

One optional external connection is used:

 * **European Union Your Europe (europa.eu)** — only when an administrator explicitly
   enables the official legal-guarantee notice, WordPress downloads the selected
   language version of the official harmonised notice and stores it locally.
 * Data sent: normal technical request information inherent in an HTTPS download,
   such as the website server’s IP address, request headers and requested notice
   URL. No Merqivio scan results, product data or customer data are sent.
 * Purpose: obtain the official, unmodified regulatory notice requested by the administrator.
 * Service information: https://europa.eu/youreurope/
 * European Commission legal notice and reuse policy: https://commission.europa.
   eu/legal-notice_en
 * EU web privacy policy: https://commission.europa.eu/privacy-policy-websites-managed-
   european-commission_en

No external request is made for this feature unless an administrator enables it.

## FAQ

### Does the plugin send my store data to Merqivio?

No. The compliance scan runs locally and no scan results or product data are transmitted
to Merqivio.

### Do I need a Merqivio account?

No.

### Does it work with WooCommerce?

Yes. Product fields and product-page output integrate with WooCommerce when WooCommerce
is active.

### Does it guarantee legal compliance?

No. It provides technical checks and structured fields. Applicable legal requirements
depend on the product, business role, markets and factual circumstances.

### Why does the legal-guarantee feature contact europa.eu?

Only after an administrator explicitly enables the feature, WordPress downloads 
the official EU notice once and stores it locally. Visitors do not load the notice
from europa.eu.

### Is PRO required?

No. The WordPress.org plugin is complete and independently usable. PRO is a separate
optional add-on; no paid code is included or locked in the free plugin.
