<p>Data Privacy Manager for WooCommerce adds a self-service privacy center to WooCommerce My Account, giving customers a clear place to request data exports, ask for data erasure, and start an account deletion workflow.</p>
<p>It helps store teams reduce manual privacy request emails, manage customer privacy workflows from WooCommerce Admin, and support GDPR-style privacy request handling with a cleaner customer experience. Customers can see available privacy actions, follow request status, download completed export files, and receive updates during account deletion. Store teams can configure privacy options, manage account-closure review, customize plugin-managed emails, and control which staff users can help manage privacy workflows.</p>
<h2>What you’ll get</h2>
<p>With Data Privacy Manager for WooCommerce, you can add customer privacy workflow tools directly to your store:</p>
<ul class="wccom-tick-list-primary">
<li><strong>Data Privacy area in My Account:</strong> Give customers one clear place to manage supported privacy actions from their WooCommerce account.</li>
<li><strong>Personal data export requests:</strong> Let customers request a copy of their personal data and download completed export files when available.</li>
<li><strong>Personal data erasure requests:</strong> Allow customers to submit erasure requests and follow their status from My Account.</li>
<li><strong>Account deletion workflow:</strong> Add a structured account-closure flow with OTP confirmation, hold-period handling, cancellation support, and customer-facing status updates.</li>
<li><strong>Request history and status tracking:</strong> Show customers what is pending, confirmed, completed, cancelled, or awaiting follow-up.</li>
<li><strong>WooCommerce Admin privacy workspace:</strong> Manage privacy settings, account-closure requests, workflow options, staff access, and plugin-managed emails from WooCommerce Admin.</li>
<li><strong>Editable privacy emails:</strong> Customize plugin-managed customer and staff emails for clearer privacy communication.</li>
<li><strong>Privacy staff access controls:</strong> Decide which staff users can help manage privacy workflows and internal notifications.</li>
</ul>
<h2>Add a privacy center to WooCommerce My Account</h2>
<p>Customers should not need to contact support just to find out how to request their data or close their account.</p>
<p>Data Privacy Manager for WooCommerce adds a dedicated Data Privacy area to My Account, where customers can start supported privacy actions and follow request progress from one place.</p>
<p>Customers can:</p>
<ul class="wccom-tick-list-primary">
<li><strong>Request a personal data export:</strong> Start an export request from inside their account.</li>
<li><strong>Request erasure of eligible stored information:</strong> Submit an erasure request through a guided WooCommerce flow.</li>
<li><strong>Start account deletion:</strong> Begin an account-closure workflow with confirmation and status messaging.</li>
<li><strong>View request history:</strong> See previous and current privacy requests in one place.</li>
<li><strong>Download completed exports:</strong> Access completed export files when download links are available.</li>
<li><strong>Follow account-closure status:</strong> See hold-period, cancellation, and staff-message updates when enabled.</li>
</ul>
<h2>Scale privacy request handling</h2>
<p>Manual privacy request handling can become slow and inconsistent as a store grows. Use Data Privacy Manager for WooCommerce to create a clearer process for customers and staff.</p>
<p>Use the plugin to:</p>
<ul class="wccom-tick-list-primary">
<li><strong>Reduce manual support work:</strong> Give customers self-service privacy actions instead of relying on back-and-forth support emails for every step.</li>
<li><strong>Improve customer trust:</strong> Make privacy options easier to find inside the account area customers already use.</li>
<li><strong>Keep workflows organized:</strong> Track request progress, account-closure milestones, staff notes, and customer-visible updates.</li>
<li><strong>Support GDPR-style workflows:</strong> Help your store manage export, erasure, and deletion requests more consistently while working with WordPress privacy tools.</li>
<li><strong>Give staff the right access:</strong> Assign privacy-management access to selected team members instead of exposing privacy tasks broadly.</li>
</ul>
<h2>Let customers request exports and erasure</h2>
<p>Give customers a clearer way to start privacy requests from their WooCommerce account.</p>
<p>Customers can request a copy of their personal data, submit an erasure request, and follow request status from My Account. Store owners can control which privacy actions are available and how long completed export links remain available.</p>
<p>This gives customers a better self-service experience while keeping export and erasure handling aligned with WordPress privacy tools.</p>
<h2>Manage account deletion with confirmation and review</h2>
<p>Account deletion often needs more care than a one-click delete button.</p>
<p>Data Privacy Manager for WooCommerce adds a guided account deletion workflow with OTP confirmation, optional staff review, hold-period handling, cancellation support, and customer-visible communication.</p>
<p>This helps stores create a clearer account-closure process while giving customers visibility into what is happening and what comes next.</p>
<p>Account-closure workflow tools include:</p>
<ul class="wccom-tick-list-primary">
<li><strong>OTP confirmation:</strong> Require customer confirmation before the account-closure process continues.</li>
<li><strong>Hold-period handling:</strong> Give stores a structured window before final account deletion.</li>
<li><strong>Cancellation support:</strong> Allow account-closure requests to be cancelled when the workflow allows it.</li>
<li><strong>Customer-visible updates:</strong> Show status messages, milestones, and next steps in My Account.</li>
<li><strong>Internal staff notes:</strong> Keep request context available for the privacy team.</li>
</ul>
<h2>Manage privacy workflows in WooCommerce Admin</h2>
<p>Store teams can manage privacy workflows from a dedicated WooCommerce Admin workspace instead of piecing together settings across different screens.</p>
<p>The admin workspace helps staff:</p>
<ul class="wccom-tick-list-primary">
<li><strong>Configure available actions:</strong> Choose which privacy actions appear to customers in My Account.</li>
<li><strong>Manage export and erasure options:</strong> Control customer-facing privacy request behavior.</li>
<li><strong>Review account-closure requests:</strong> Inspect request details, reasons, milestones, and messages.</li>
<li><strong>Approve or cancel workflows:</strong> Manage account-closure review steps when enabled.</li>
<li><strong>Manage plugin emails:</strong> Edit plugin-managed customer and staff privacy email templates.</li>
<li><strong>Assign privacy access:</strong> Control which staff users can help manage privacy workflows.</li>
</ul>
<h2>Customize privacy emails and staff access</h2>
<p>Privacy requests need clear communication between customers and store staff.</p>
<p>The plugin includes editable templates for plugin-managed privacy emails, including account-closure messages, customer-visible updates, staff alerts, and erasure approval messages.</p>
<p>Store owners can also assign privacy-management access to specific staff users and control whether the WordPress Administration Email Address receives internal privacy notifications.</p>
<h2>Works with WordPress privacy tools</h2>
<p>Data Privacy Manager for WooCommerce works with WordPress privacy tools for export and erasure requests.</p>
<p>The plugin adds the WooCommerce My Account experience, admin workflow controls, account deletion handling, staff access controls, request visibility, and plugin-managed privacy communication around those existing privacy workflows.</p>
<h2>Best for</h2>
<p>Data Privacy Manager for WooCommerce is a strong fit for:</p>
<ul class="wccom-tick-list-primary">
<li><strong>WooCommerce stores:</strong> Add customer self-service privacy requests to My Account.</li>
<li><strong>Stores handling GDPR-style workflows:</strong> Support privacy request handling for export, erasure, and account deletion.</li>
<li><strong>Support teams:</strong> Reduce manual privacy request emails and repeated customer follow-ups.</li>
<li><strong>Agencies:</strong> Deliver a clearer privacy request experience for WooCommerce client stores.</li>
<li><strong>Stores with privacy staff:</strong> Assign access to the team members who should manage privacy workflows.</li>
</ul>
<h2>How to get started</h2>
<ol>
<li><strong>Purchase and download</strong> Data Privacy Manager for WooCommerce.</li>
<li><strong>Install and activate</strong> the .zip file in your WooCommerce store.</li>
<li><strong>Open WooCommerce > Data Privacy</strong> to configure privacy workflow settings.</li>
<li><strong>Choose which customer actions are available</strong> in My Account.</li>
<li><strong>Review export, erasure, and account-deletion settings</strong> for your store.</li>
<li><strong>Customize plugin-managed privacy emails</strong> if needed.</li>
<li><strong>Test the customer flow</strong> from My Account > Data Privacy.</li>
</ol>
<p>That is it. Your customers can start using the Data Privacy area in My Account, and your store team can manage privacy workflows from WooCommerce Admin.</p>

<h4>Handling Fraud Effectively: Automatically cancel or pause suspicious orders</h4>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-18734001237845" src="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/WooCommerce-antifraud-cancel-and-pause-fraudulent-orders.jpg" alt="Setting to hold or cancel orders with high risk factor." width="980" height="406" /></p>
<p>If a potentially fraudulent transaction is detected, the WooCommerce Anti-Fraud will automatically block or prevent these orders based on your specific configuration. The plugin can easily be configured to perform one or more of the following automated actions:</p>
<ul>
<li>Automatically Cancel the order.</li>
<li>Automatically place the order On-Hold.</li>
<li>Email Admin + Notify store of Suspect Order without changing the order status.</li>
<li>Auto Blacklist email and other Order Details.</li>
<li>Prevent Bank/Payment Gateway access (Pre-payment verification)</li>
</ul>
<h4>Pre-Configured Rules</h4>
<p>WooCommerce Anti-Fraud works out of the box – no need for additional rule configuration. We have defined a collection of default rules that automatically assess and scores each transaction. These pre-configured rules are suitable for most online stores. Moreover, you can easily customize the rules to suit your preferences with just a few clicks and to place higher or lower importance on specific factors/rules.</p>
<h4>Customize the importance of each risk factor</h4>
<p>The WooCommerce Anti-Fraud plugin lets you assign a ‘risk weight’ to each risk factor. This means that you can decide how important each risk is and configure this to your specific sotore. The higher the risk weight for each category, the higher the consideration will be given to the rule in calculating the overall risk score when the risk is detected.</p>
<h4>First-time Purchase Rules</h4>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-18734001244042" src="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/First-time-purchase-rule-set.jpg" alt="First time purchase rule" /></p>
<p>Identify first-time customers or their initial order in a processing state. This rule also allows you to<br />
recognize new customers. Allow Antifraud to understand and make it easier for your existing clients to shop and repurchase.</p>
<h4>Harness the Power of Machine Learning with Maxmind minFraud® integration</h4>
<p><img class="aligncenter wp-image-6426197 size-full" src="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/minfraud-anti-fraud-woocommerce.jpg" alt="minfraud" width="841" height="581" /></p>
<p>WooCommerce Anti-fraud now includes integration with the<a href="https://www.maxmind.com/en/solutions/minfraud-services"> Maxmind minFraud Score</a> tools. Now, combine existing rules with a smart real-time risk score for each order. This feature gives you an extra layer of security by assessing orders for fraudulent activities using a smart machine learning algorithm by MaxMind. Enabling this feature, you will be notified about the status of the order when the risk score exceeds the threshold set in the minFraud Settings.</p>
<h4>Ordered Quantity and Amount Check</h4>
<p><img class="aligncenter wp-image-6426204 size-full" src="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/order-and-amount.jpg" alt="order amounts" width="832" height="358" /></p>
<p>These two features can help you reduce chargebacks effectively. You can set the maximum buying amount, number of products and even weighting based on the type of products you are selling to counter fraudulent activities.</p>
<h3 id="anchor-11"></h3>

<div class="twocol-one last">
<h4>Access Ecommerce Fraud Prevention Experts</h4>
<p>Gain access to OPMC’s experienced team to advise on your ecommerce fraud prevention matters, and access advice for more complex needs and challenges.</p>
<h4>Check the ‘risk’ of each order</h4>
<p><img class="wp-image-18734001227897 aligncenter" src="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/antifraud-gif.gif" alt="antifraud" width="283" height="456" /></p>
<p>WooCommerce Anti-Fraud plugin automatically assigns a risk score to each order on a scale of 1 to 100. The higher the score, the greater the likelihood of the order being fraudulent. This is called the risk score. Examining the risk score enables you to quickly evaluate the potential risk associated with the transaction and take the appropriate defensive actions. You can find the risk score and receive advice for each order directly within the WooCommerce admin panel.</p>
<p>Beneath the risk score, users can see any warnings linked to the order. The advice provided is related to the rules in place (for example, if a customer’s IP address doesn’t match the billing country). The higher this number is, the more likely it is that the order is potentially fraudulent.</p>
<p><img class="size-medium wp-image-4970463 aligncenter" src="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/1-anti-fraud-rating.jpg?w=620" alt="anti-fraud rating score" width="620" height="549" /></p>
<h4>Whitelisting of User Roles, Payment Methods and Emails</h4>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-18734001238701" src="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/WooCommerce-antifraud-whitelisting-features.jpg" alt="Settings to whitelist user roles, payment methods and emails" width="980" height="941" /></p>
<p>Bypass user roles, payment methods and emails from fraud rules by whitelisting them.</p>
<h4>Pre-Purchase Assessment of Risk</h4>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-18734001243925" src="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/WooCommerce-antifraud-pre-purchase-assessment.jpg" alt="Pre purchase assessment of orders" width="980" height="531" /></p>
<p>Evaluate customers before they make actual purchases through your Payment Gateway.</p>
<p>Payment Gateway or Bank warning you about too many fraudulent transactions? Pre-payment Verification can help.</p>
<p>If the risk score reaches a high-risk order range, the customer order will be denied in advance, a custom message will appear on the checkout explaining the reason for denial. Add a custom message by typing in the text area in the pre-purchase setting.</p>
<h4>IP, Billing and Shipping Address-based Rules</h4>
<p>Identify threats based on IP, geolocation, phone number, proxy, billing and shipping addresses.</p>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-18734002558401" src="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Antifraud-Medium-Risk.png" alt="Anti-fraud medium risk score" width="980" height="490" /></p>
