Title: Pratcom Connect Author: Pratcom Media Published: June 20, 2026 Last modified: June 20, 2026 --- Search plugins ![](https://ps.w.org/pratcom-connect/assets/banner-772x250.png?rev=3579379) ![](https://ps.w.org/pratcom-connect/assets/icon-256x256.png?rev=3579379) # Pratcom Connect By [Pratcom Media](https://profiles.wordpress.org/pratcommedia/) [Download](https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/pratcom-connect.2.1.2.zip) * [Details](https://wordpress.org/plugins/pratcom-connect/#description) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/plugins/pratcom-connect/#reviews) * [Development](https://wordpress.org/plugins/pratcom-connect/#developers) [Support](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/pratcom-connect/) ## Description **Pratcom Connect** adds a cookie consent banner to your WordPress site, designed for compliance with Quebec’s Law 25 — free, with no account required and no calls to any external server. The plugin interface and the consent banner are fully bilingual (French and English). #### Free (no account required) * **Law 25 consent banner**: cookie categories (necessary, analytics, marketing), editable FR/EN texts, design adaptable to your brand (primary color + rich palette, WCAG contrast computed automatically). * **Presets for popular plugins**: check the tools you use (Google Analytics 4, Meta Pixel, Hotjar, and more) — the cookie declaration and blocking rules configure themselves. Automatic suggestions based on the plugins active on your site (local detection, no data transmitted). * **Legal pages**: a privacy policy and a standalone cookie declaration, both bilingual and generated automatically. They are created on activation and kept up to date from your presets, your manual list and a local scan. Shortcodes: [pratcom_privacy_policy] and [pratcom_cookie_declaration]. * **Local consent registry**: proof of consent stored in your WordPress database, with CSV export. #### Paid modules (require a Pratcom Connect account) * **Privacy Connect**: automatic scan of your site’s cookies and trackers. * **Connect Forms**: smart forms with lead scoring and routing. * **Connect Chat**: multilingual AI chatbot, available 24/7, trained on your content. Paid modules are provided by the Pratcom Connect service and are enabled by connecting your account (API key). Without an account, the plugin remains fully functional for Law 25 consent. #### External service (disclosure) In the free version, **no data is sent to any external server**: the banner, presets, legal pages and registry run entirely on your site. If you connect a Pratcom Connect account (a voluntary action), the plugin communicates with the **api.connect.pratcom.net** service (operated by Pratcom Media, Canada): * **When**: when connecting your account (handshake), during scheduled status checks, and when saving your brand colors. * **What**: your API key, the site domain, module status and brand palette. Active modules (forms, chat) transmit data submitted by your visitors to the service for processing. * **Terms**: [Privacy Policy](https://connect.pratcom.net/confidentialite) – [Terms of Use](https://connect.pratcom.net/conditions) ## Screenshots [⌊Dashboard — connection overview: workspace, active modules and last handshake.⌉⌊ Dashboard — connection overview: workspace, active modules and last handshake.⌉[ Dashboard — connection overview: workspace, active modules and last handshake.

Yes. The Law 25 consent banner, presets, legal pages and local registry are free, with no account and no time limit. Paid modules are optional. ### Does my data leave my site in the free version? No. No external call is made as long as you do not connect a Pratcom Connect account. ### Is the banner compliant with Quebec’s Law 25? The plugin provides the required mechanisms (prior consent per category, easy withdrawal, proof registry). Overall compliance also depends on your own practices (privacy policy, designated privacy officer). ### Is the plugin bilingual? Yes, French and English (banner texts are editable in both languages). ### How do I remove the “Powered by Pratcom Connect” attribution? The consent banner shows a small “Powered by Pratcom Connect” link by default (an attribution notice). You can remove it at any time: uncheck **“Show the Powered by Pratcom Connect badge”** in the Privacy tab. Developers can also remove it programmatically with the `pratcom_connect_branding` filter: ``` add_filter( 'pratcom_connect_branding', '__return_false' ); ``` ### How do I enable the Forms and Chat modules? Create an account at connect.pratcom.net, choose your modules, then paste your API key in the plugin’s Account tab. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “Pratcom Connect” is open source software.
