CookiePal

Welcome to CookiePal, a WordPress plugin designed to easily add the CookiePal cookie consent banner to your website. This plugin allows administrators to input their CookiePal Website ID, enabling users to manage their consent preferences and comply with privacy regulations seamlessly.

This plugin requires a CookiePal account and an active Website ID, which you can obtain from your CookiePal dashboard. Ensure your account is configured for proper functionality.

Starting from version 1.1, this plugin requires the WP Consent API plugin to be installed and active. It uses the WP Consent API to register and manage user consent in a standardized way across your WordPress site.

Use of External Service

This plugin relies on CookiePal, an external service for managing cookie consent banners. For the plugin to function, users must enter their CookiePal Website ID, which allows the consent banner to load dynamically. When using CookiePal Banner, user consent information may be sent to CookiePal’s service to manage preferences.

These disclosures help ensure that users are aware of where data is sent and are informed of data transmission requirements under privacy laws.
