No. The plugin helps website owners create and manage important privacy, cookie, complaint and data request processes, but every business is different and legal advice may still be required. ### Does the cookie banner block all scripts automatically? The free plugin provides a cookie banner and lightweight consent logging. It does not automatically block scripts loaded by other plugins, themes, Google Tag Manager or hard-coded header scripts. ### Does it keep records? Yes. The plugin keeps basic logs of consent choices, complaints, data requests and opt-out submissions. ### Does it use SMTP? The plugin uses the WordPress mail system. For better reliability, users may wish to use an SMTP plugin. ### What are the privacy page display modes? Theme default is safest for most sites. Plugin Default can help with hard-coded themes where normal WordPress content is not shown. Plugin Standalone creates a plain standalone GDPR page without the theme header or footer while still loading WordPress, theme and plugin styles where possible. ### Can I turn off the cookie banner? Yes. The cookie banner can be turned on or off from the plugin settings. ### Is there a paid version? A Pro version is planned with advanced tools such as enhanced exports, advanced cookie script loading, richer records and priority support. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “thetechspert Privacy Compliance Tools for UK GDPR” is open source software.
