GDPR Consent

Cookie Consent PopUp is one of the simplest and most popular cookie notification plugins out there.

Geo IP support – choose which continents to display notifications (requires GeoIP Detect plugin to be installed)

Easily select pages or posts where the cookie notification doesn’t display. You now have complete control over which pages display a notification and which don’t.

Close on scroll – optionally choose scrolling as closure method.

Simple set up

Simply install and activate the plugin to automatically add the cookie consent notification bar. On activation, the plugin creates and populates a page on your site with information about your cookie policy and automatically links to the page from the notification bar. So if you’re using the default settings, it’s a matter of seconds to get up and running.

Features

• Dismissal element either button or ‘x’ close

Importantly, the plug-in does not disable cookies on your site or prevent the user from continuing to browse the site. Several plug-ins have adopted the “explicit consent” approach which obliges users to opt in to cookies on your site. This is likely to deter visitors.

Does this definitely cover me under the legislation?

You have to make up your own mind about that or consult a legal expert.
