This is a self-declaration screen: it takes the visitor’s word and does not check identity or age, and it does not by itself make a site compliant with any law. #### Features * Full-page screen with a blurred background — the page is covered until the visitor responds * Configurable minimum age, shown directly in the message * Fully customizable header, message, and button text * Visitors who click “No” are redirected away immediately — to a URL you choose * A confirmed visitor isn’t asked again for a configurable number of days, remembered via cookie * Nothing is sent to or stored on your server — a Yes/No click is remembered only in a cookie in the visitor’s browser * Takes priority over the popups of WP Small Plugins’ WPSP Ad Blocker Alert and WPSP Discount Wheel plugins when they are active on the same site, so a marketing popup never covers the age check #### Upgrade to Pro **WPSP Age Confirmation Screen Pro** adds: * Date-of-birth entry instead of a single Yes/No click (the age is worked out from the date the visitor types) * WooCommerce product and category-specific gating — restrict just the pages that need it, not your whole site * Multiple gates with different age thresholds and targeting rules * An analytics dashboard showing confirmations vs. declines over time ## Screenshots [⌊The full-page age confirmation screen as a visitor sees it.⌉⌊The full-page age confirmation screen as a visitor sees it.⌉[ The full-page age confirmation screen as a visitor sees it.

Go to **WPSP Age Confirmation Screen** in your admin menu, turn it on, and set your minimum age ## FAQ ### Does this store any personal data? Not on your server. A visitor’s Yes/No response is remembered only via one first- party cookie in their own browser, named `wpsp_age_confirmation_screen_confirmed_` followed by a short code. It holds the value 1, is set only after the visitor clicks Yes, and lasts the number of days you choose (1 to 365). Nothing is sent to your site or any third party, and the plugin makes no external requests. ### Does this verify a visitor’s real age? No. It asks the visitor to confirm their age with a Yes/No click and takes their word for it. It does not check identity or documents, and it does not by itself make a site compliant with any age-restriction law. ### Is this plugin Multisite compatible? No, WPSP Age Confirmation Screen is designed for single-site use only. ### Where can I get support? Ask on the [WordPress.org support forum](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wpsp-age-confirmation-screen/)— the Support tab in the plugin’s own settings links there too. WPSP Age Confirmation Screen Pro customers get priority support instead of the forum queue. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “WPSP Age Confirmation Screen” is open source software.
