<h4>External Service</h4>
This plugin relies on <a href="https://kukie.io" rel="nofollow ugc">Kukie.io</a>, a third-party cookie consent management service (SaaS), to provide its core functionality.
By installing and configuring this plugin with your site key, you consent to connecting to the Kukie.io service.
What is loaded:
<ul>
<li>A cookie consent banner script from <code>https://cdn.kukie.io</code> (served over HTTPS)</li>
<li>The script contains your banner configuration (colours, text, cookie categories)</li>
</ul>
What is transmitted:
<ul>
<li>Your site key (to identify your banner configuration)</li>
<li>No personal visitor data is collected by the plugin itself</li>
</ul>

<ul>
<li>The banner script loads on every public page of your website</li>
<li>Admin pages connect to <code>https://app.kukie.io</code> for banner configuration</li>
</ul>
Service links:
<ul>
<li><a href="https://kukie.io" rel="nofollow ugc">Kukie.io Website</a></li>

<li><a href="https://kukie.io/privacy-policy" rel="nofollow ugc">Privacy Policy</a></li>
</ul>
NOTE: INSTALLING THIS PLUGIN ALONE DOES NOT MAKE YOUR SITE FULLY COMPLIANT WITH GDPR, CCPA OR OTHER PRIVACY REGULATIONS. COMPLIANCE DEPENDS ON CORRECT CONFIGURATION AND MAY REQUIRE ADDITIONAL LEGAL MEASURES SPECIFIC TO YOUR ORGANISATION.
<h3>Multilingual Support</h3>
Kukie works out of the box with WPML and Polylang. When a visitor views a translated page, the cookie consent banner automatically displays in the matching language – no additional configuration needed.
Supported language sources (in priority order):
<ol>
<li>Manual override from plugin settings (“Banner language” dropdown)</li>
<li>WPML current language</li>
<li>Polylang current language</li>
<li>WordPress site locale</li>
</ol>
Banner translations (titles, descriptions, buttons, cookie categories) are managed in the Kukie dashboard at https://app.kukie.io. The plugin ships with built-in translations for 71 languages.
Developers can programmatically override the detected language via the <code>kukie_script_lang</code> filter:
<pre><code>add_filter( 'kukie_script_lang', function( $lang, $source ) {
 return 'de'; // Force German regardless of WPML/Polylang state
}, 10, 2 );
</code></pre>
The <code>$source</code> argument is one of <code>forced</code>, <code>wpml</code>, <code>polylang</code>, <code>wp_core</code>, or <code>none</code>, letting filter callbacks decide based on where the language came from.
