Why EasyConsent?
EasyConsent is built specifically for EU businesses. It is designed to be simple to set up, compliant by default, and affordable for small and medium businesses.
<h3>External Services</h3>
This plugin connects to the EasyConsent service (easyconsent.eu) for two purposes:
1. Account registration and widget creation
When the site administrator enters their email and clicks “Create Free Account & Activate”, the plugin sends a request to the EasyConsent API to create an account and generate a consent widget.
Data sent: administrator email address, site domain (e.g. example.com), and WordPress locale (e.g. “en”). 
This data is sent only once, when the administrator submits the registration form. 
Endpoint: https://easyconsent.eu/api/plugin/register
2. Loading the consent banner script
Once a widget UUID is stored, the plugin loads the consent banner JavaScript from the EasyConsent CDN on every page of the site visited by end users.
Data sent: the request may include the visitor’s IP address (processed according to EasyConsent’s privacy policy) and the page URL via standard HTTP headers. 
This happens on every front-end page load when the plugin is active and a widget UUID is configured. 
Endpoint: https://easyconsent.eu/widget/{uuid}.js
EasyConsent is hosted and operated in the European Union and processes data in compliance with GDPR.

</li>
<li>
No data is sent to the plugin author – All consent data stays on your server.
</li>

<h3>Privacy Policy</h3>
Cookie Signal Manager collects and stores the following data: 
* Consent ID (unique identifier, encrypted) 
* IP address (anonymized – last octet replaced with “X”, encrypted) 
* User agent (encrypted) 
* Consent decisions and timestamps
All personal data is anonymized according to the data minimization principle (GDPR Art. 5(1)(c)). Data is securely stored in the WordPress database with AES-256 encryption. Data is automatically deleted according to the configured retention period (default 730 days).
The plugin does not send any data to external servers. Google Tag Manager is only loaded when the user configures a GTM Container ID, and operates according to Google Consent Mode v2 principles (all consents denied by default).
