Title: GDPR Last modified: May 17, 2018 --- # GDPR * Resolved [kurtmalta2](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kurtmalta2/) * (@kurtmalta2) * [7 years, 12 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/gdpr-97/) * Hi, * In light of the upcoming GDPR regulations, does this plugin store personal information in any way and make use of cookies? * Thanks Viewing 12 replies - 1 through 12 (of 12 total) * [flizzywp](https://wordpress.org/support/users/flizzywp/) * (@flizzywp) * [7 years, 12 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/gdpr-97/#post-10297070) * I was about to ask the same. I think we have to anonymize the logged IPs in the options. As far as I know, this is the only change the have to make to be GDPR compliant. The question is, do we have to disable IP logging completely, or is the anonymize option enough? * It would be nice if someone could give more information about this, because it’s urgent. - This reply was modified 7 years, 12 months ago by [flizzywp](https://wordpress.org/support/users/flizzywp/). - This reply was modified 7 years, 12 months ago by [flizzywp](https://wordpress.org/support/users/flizzywp/). * Plugin Author [John Godley](https://wordpress.org/support/users/johnny5/) * (@johnny5) * [7 years, 12 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/gdpr-97/#post-10297778) * In my personal opinion IP masking is sufficient to meet GDPR but I’m not a lawyer and I cannot answer the question about what is required for laws relevant to you. * The plugin does not use cookies and has no access to personal information. * [flizzywp](https://wordpress.org/support/users/flizzywp/) * (@flizzywp) * [7 years, 12 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/gdpr-97/#post-10299445) * Thank you. Can you please tell me what exactly I lose when I disable the IP loggin completely? * Plugin Author [John Godley](https://wordpress.org/support/users/johnny5/) * (@johnny5) * [7 years, 12 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/gdpr-97/#post-10299495) * The IP address is not collected or is masked. * [flizzywp](https://wordpress.org/support/users/flizzywp/) * (@flizzywp) * [7 years, 12 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/gdpr-97/#post-10299509) * I mean what functionality/feature do I lose? I’m trying to figure out if I can just disable it completely. * Plugin Author [John Godley](https://wordpress.org/support/users/johnny5/) * (@johnny5) * [7 years, 12 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/gdpr-97/#post-10299512) * As I said, the IP address is not collected, or is masked. * [flizzywp](https://wordpress.org/support/users/flizzywp/) * (@flizzywp) * [7 years, 12 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/gdpr-97/#post-10299515) * And the rest of the plugin will behave as before? Or does that have any cascading effect? It’s literally just not seing the IP adress in the log? What about the stuff under “Referrer / User Agent”? * Plugin Author [John Godley](https://wordpress.org/support/users/johnny5/) * (@johnny5) * [7 years, 12 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/gdpr-97/#post-10299522) * It disables or masks the IP address only. * [flizzywp](https://wordpress.org/support/users/flizzywp/) * (@flizzywp) * [7 years, 12 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/gdpr-97/#post-10299529) * I don’t know if you are in a bad mood, but don’t forget that not everyone understands this stuff as well as you do. Thanks anways. * Plugin Author [John Godley](https://wordpress.org/support/users/johnny5/) * (@johnny5) * [7 years, 12 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/gdpr-97/#post-10300002) * I am not in a bad mood, and I’m sorry you would interpret it as that, or think that I’m not trying to help. I don’t spend my time in the forum to feel superior. * You asked what functionality is lost when you disable IP logging, and I replied as simply as seemed appropriate – IP logging would be disabled. That is truly all that happens. I don’t know how to else to reply so that it still answers the question and doesn’t make you think there is something else. * So again, my not-in-a-bad-mood answer is simply: it disables the IP logging. It does not affect the plugin in any other way, and does not have any cascading effect. * [TwoScotsAbroad](https://wordpress.org/support/users/twoscotsabroad/) * (@twoscotsabroad) * [7 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/gdpr-97/#post-10340880) * Sorry to jump in here – how do you disable the IP? * Thanks Gemma * Plugin Author [John Godley](https://wordpress.org/support/users/johnny5/) * (@johnny5) * [7 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/gdpr-97/#post-10406624) * It is an option here: * [https://redirection.me/support/options/](https://redirection.me/support/options/) Viewing 12 replies - 1 through 12 (of 12 total) The topic ‘GDPR’ is closed to new replies. * ![](https://ps.w.org/redirection/assets/icon-256x256.jpg?rev=983639) * [Redirection](https://wordpress.org/plugins/redirection/) * [Frequently Asked Questions](https://wordpress.org/plugins/redirection/#faq) * [Support Threads](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/redirection/) * [Active Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/redirection/active/) * [Unresolved Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/redirection/unresolved/) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/redirection/reviews/) ## Tags * [redirect](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/redirect/) * 12 replies * 4 participants * Last reply from: [John Godley](https://wordpress.org/support/users/johnny5/) * Last activity: [7 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/gdpr-97/#post-10406624) * Status: resolved
