PolicyDesk is a professional-grade cookie consent plugin for WordPress that helps you implement a clear cookie notice experience for GDPR/CCPA and other privacy requirements.
It includes multiple banner layouts (Banner, Box, Modal), a preferences modal for category-based choices (when enabled), a basic CCPA “Do not sell or share my personal information” option, and consent logging stored in cookies and your WordPress database.
Many cookie notice plugins stop at a simple banner. PolicyDesk focuses on flexible layouts, an accessible preference center, and admin tools to configure how consent is collected and stored. Additional advanced features may be available in PolicyDesk Pro (see the Premium Features section below).

SG2 DPDP Compliance Toolkit is a comprehensive WordPress plugin designed to help Indian websites comply with the Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act, 2023. It provides tools for managing user consent, handling data subject rights (DSR) requests, generating dynamic privacy policies, and auditing compliance activities.
<h3>Key Features:</h3>
<ul>
<li>Consent Management Banner: A customizable cookie consent popup that allows users to manage preferences for data processing purposes (e.g., communication, analytics, marketing, strictly necessary). Supports multi-language (English, Hindi) and test mode for development.</li>
<li>Grievance Redressal Form: A secure form for users to submit DSR requests (access, correction, deletion of personal data). Includes email confirmation, rate limiting, and admin workflow for approval/rejection.</li>
<li>Privacy Policy Generator: Automatically generates a basic privacy policy based on your site settings, using templates for blogs or e-commerce sites. Easily customizable via shortcodes.</li>
<li>Admin Dashboard: Beautiful, responsive dashboard with metrics (total consents, pending requests), sub-pages for settings, logs, requests, audit trails, script manager, and exports (CSV/JSON).</li>
<li>Consent Logging & Audit: Logs all consents and actions to the database with IP/user agent hashing for privacy. View/export logs easily.</li>
<li>Shortcodes: Embed components easily:
<ul>
<li><code>[dpdp_grievance_form]</code>: DSR request form.</li>
<li><code>[dpdp_consent_status]</code>: User’s current consent status.</li>
<li><code>[dpdp_privacy_policy]</code>: Dynamic privacy policy.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Script Manager: Block or manage third-party scripts based on consent (e.g., GA4, Facebook Pixel integrations via SDK).</li>
<li>Security & Performance: Rate limiting, nonces, sanitization, and GDPR-inspired best practices. No external dependencies beyond WordPress core.</li>
<li>SDK for Integrations: JavaScript SDK for advanced consent checks (e.g., <code>window.DPDP.getConsent()</code>).</li>
</ul>
The plugin auto-creates necessary database tables on activation and sets up default pages (Privacy Policy, Consent Status, Grievance Form). It’s lightweight, mobile-responsive, and follows WordPress coding standards.
