<h2>What it does</h2>
<p>With this extension, you can:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Comply with regulations</strong>: Enforce minimum age requirements for alcohol, vape, supplements, knives, and more.</li>
<li><strong>Choose verification method</strong>: Quick self-confirmation or precise date-of-birth input.</li>
<li><strong>Target where it shows</strong>: Site entry, restricted product/category/tag/brand pages, add-to-cart, checkout, and specific posts/pages.</li>
<li><strong>Remember verified users</strong>: Signed cookie and user meta (for logged-in customers) prevents repeat prompts across sessions.</li>
<li><strong>Force re-verification</strong>: Bump the <strong>Policy Version</strong> to re-challenge everyone after legal or policy changes.</li>
<li><strong>Operate privacy-first</strong>: Consent-aware mode respects your CMP and keeps all data on your site—no third-party services.</li>
<li><strong>Audit with confidence</strong>: Built-in logs, CSV export, and WP-CLI tools for reporting and compliance reviews.</li>
<li><strong>Design to match your brand</strong>: Multiple preset templates (Tailwind, Flowbite, and more) with customizable colors, fonts, and overlays.</li>
</ul>

<h2>Why choose this extension vs other options?</h2>
<ul>
<li><strong>Granular control</strong>: Most extensions offer a single, generic popup. Age Verification Manager lets you set rules per product, category, page, or checkout.</li>
<li><strong>Compliance-first architecture</strong>: Hashed IPs, privacy exporter/eraser, consent-aware mode, and detailed logs.</li>
<li><strong>Native WooCommerce integration</strong>: Hooks into add-to-cart and checkout validation so restricted items can’t slip through.</li>
<li><strong>Performance-minded</strong>: Lightweight, only loads when needed, and built for modern WordPress/WooCommerce versions.</li>
<li><strong>Developer-friendly</strong>: Filters, actions, REST endpoints, and WP-CLI commands for scalable operations.</li>
</ul>
