 * hi Team,
 * In Germany, France and Ireland, we need a “Reject all” button. This is mandatory
   by law.
 * How can I achieve this with Real Cookie Banner ?
 * Thanks for your help,
 * Philppe

 * Hi Philppe,
 * thanks for your question.
 * We must point out that the following statements do not constitute legal advice.
   Therefore, I can only give you evaluations from our intensive experience with
   the EU legal regulations in practice and a technical assessment of the situation.
 * Real Cookie Banner, of course, offers a reject all button, as it is legally required.
   It is enabled by default. It is labeled with the text “Continue without consent”.
 * Why is it not labeled “Reject all”? Services can be used on websites not only
   under Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR (consent), but also under Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate
   interest). Legitimate interest exists in very few cases, but if it does, the “
   reject all” would reject all services that require explicit consent. However,
   it would not exercise the right to object to services with a legitimate interest.
   We don’t want to mislead website visitors, which is why we don’t label the button“
   Reject all”, but instead make the legal effect clearer with the label “Continue
   without consent”.
 * However, you can change the button label at any time in the WordPress Customizer.
   Especially if you don’t use services according to legitimate interest, “Reject
   all” might be a more appropriate label.
 * I hope I have answered your question sufficiently!
 * Best regards,
 * Jan
