You would like to integrate Google Maps on your website and are looking for a data protection compliant solution? You would like to show your website visitors where to find you, but at the same time you want to respect their privacy?
This is exactly where trusted plugin supports you and ensures that you can integrate Google Maps on your website free of charge and in compliance with data protection regulations.
Instead of a map, we load a colored placeholder of your choice in the first step. Supplemented by a few words of your own, it becomes an attractive interaction surface for your visitors.
No data will be transferred to Google until your visitors click on the consent button. Only then will the correct map be loaded and your selected address displayed in Google Maps.
Both your placeholder and your Google Maps are mobile optimized and automatically adjust to the display size. You can also give both of them a maximum width to achieve the best optical result.
In this way you can protect the privacy of your visitors in accordance with DSGVO and at the same time give them the desired orientation to find you.
Here you can find a live demo of a <a href="https://www.exovia.de/journal/wordpress-google-maps-dsgvo/" rel="nofollow ugc">GDPR map</a> created with the plugin.
