The GDPR Helper for YouTube Videos plugin helps you embed YouTube videos in a GDPR-compliant manner. It displays a thumbnail of the video initially and loads the actual video only after the user gives consent by clicking a button. This approach helps minimize data sharing with YouTube until the user actively chooses to watch the video.
Key features: 
– Easy-to-use shortcode for embedding videos. 
– Customizable consent text, button text, and button color. 
– Privacy-enhanced mode using youtube-nocookie.com. 
– Clear information for users about data sharing.
<h3>Usage</h3>
<ol>
<li>After activation, navigate to the “YouTube GDPR” menu in the WordPress admin dashboard.</li>
<li>Configure the settings such as consent text, button text, and button color.</li>
<li>Use the shortcode <code>[gdpr_youtube id="VIDEO_ID" title="Your Video Title"]</code> in your posts or pages to embed YouTube videos.</li>
</ol>

<h4>Important Note</h4>
This plugin is specifically designed for GDPR and IAB TCF v2.3 compliance. It does not currently support US privacy frameworks such as CCPA or CPRA, or other non-EU regional privacy regulations.
<h4>Why You Need a CMP</h4>
Under GDPR, ePrivacy, and similar regulations, publishers must obtain informed, recorded consent before loading non-essential cookies, trackers, or advertising vendors. A Consent Management Platform (CMP) is the tool that requests that consent, stores the user’s choices, and broadcasts them to your downstream partners in a standard, machine-readable format. Without one, ad and analytics revenue from EU users is legally at risk.
<h3>Privacy</h3>
By installing and using the Consent Management Platform by ShareThis you agree to our <a href="https://www.sharethis.com/publisher-terms-of-use/" rel="nofollow ugc">terms of use</a>.
