 * Hi
 * I am going through various GDPR plugins to figure out the following:
    – Professional.–
   Easy to understand user interface. – Good features. (only needed features and
   no bloat)
 * – Settings feel clean and to the point.
    – Gives me a general good feeling about
   using the plugin.
 * ———
 * Initial look at Real Cookie Banner (Free) version. Because of the big text using
   free I assume there is also a premium version. Or else there would not need to
   highlight the free.
 * It uses animated gifs in the Info screen. This is tiring. It disturbs my reading
   of the information there.
 * Below is an “Additional plugins by devowl.io”
    The Info page is very much about
   having a kind of dashboard of the GDPR plugin. Instead it uses the gifs and promotes
   other products.
 * The next tab: Support. Takes me direct to the [https://devowl.io/support/](https://devowl.io/support/)
   page. It should instead contain some information in the tab and let me know in
   a link that it will take me to the support page.
 * Rate plugin. Heck I have not tested it yet.
 * —
 * I clicked the Cookies left WP menu link. Here I need to activate a free license&
   Continue.
 * Currently there is no user interface screens containing settings that I can look
   at. I want to learn about how to use the plugin by seeing settings that I can
   turn on and off before I decide to use the plugin or not.
 * I wanted to give you the above information before I remove the plugin and test
   another GDPR plugin. Have a great day!
 * Do learn from other plugins how they setup their plugins.

 * Hi [@paaljoachim](https://wordpress.org/support/users/paaljoachim/),
 * Thank you for your detailed feedback. I have taken your criticisms regarding 
   the GIFs, the info page and the support tab to discuss them internally.

 * No, you do not need to request a free license here. On the mentioned page you
   can also continue without a license by clicking on “X”.

 * In your WordPress backend, please go to Cookies in the left menu. You will find
   a variety of settings that you can set!
