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. Advanced cookie script loading is intended for the Pro version. ### Does it keep records? Yes. The free plugin keeps basic logs of consent choices, complaints, data requests and opt-out submissions. The Pro version is designed to add enhanced records and CSV export options. ### Does it use SMTP? The plugin uses the standard WordPress mail function. For better reliability, we recommend using a trusted SMTP plugin or transactional email service on your WordPress website. ### What are the privacy page display modes? The plugin includes display modes to help the generated privacy page work with different WordPress themes. Theme default uses your normal theme layout. Plugin Default helps create a cleaner plugin-controlled layout where needed. Plugin Standalone provides a simpler standalone layout for themes that make the page difficult to display correctly. ### Can I turn off the cookie banner? Yes. The cookie banner can be turned on or off from the plugin settings. ### Does the plugin include anti-spam protection? Yes. Version 1.0.13 adds built-in anti-spam protection for the complaint, data request and email opt-out forms. It can use a hidden honeypot field, a simple maths question and a minimum submission time check without relying on Google reCAPTCHA or external scripts. ### Can I turn off the anti-spam checks? Yes. Anti-spam protection can be managed from the plugin settings. You can enable or disable the built-in protection and choose which checks to use. ### Is there a paid version? Yes. A Pro version is available from https://privacytools.uk/product/pro/ for users who need advanced tools such as enhanced exports, advanced cookie script loading, richer records, additional cookie banner design controls, additional snippets and priority support. ### Do I need the free plugin installed before using Pro? Yes. The Pro version is designed as an add-on for the free plugin. Please install and activate the free plugin before installing the Pro version. ### Can visitors reopen cookie preferences? Yes. When the cookie banner is enabled, the generated Privacy and GDPR Policy page includes a Change cookie settings button so visitors can reopen the banner and update their preferences. ### Can I use one Pro licence on multiple websites? No. One Pro licence is for one WordPress website only. ## Rezensionen Zu diesem Plugin liegen noch keine Rezensionen vor. ## Mitwirkende und Entwickler „thetechspert Privacy Compliance Tools for UK GDPR“ ist Open-Source-Software.
