<h4>Important Note</h4>
<p>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.</p>
<h4>Why You Need a CMP</h4>
<p>Under GDPR, ePrivacy, and similar regulations, publishers must obtain informed, recorded consent <strong>before</strong> 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.</p>
<h3>Privacy</h3>
<p>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>. Those terms include ShareThis’s ability to record interactions with the consent banner.
