Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: Do I need a Usercentrics account?

Yes. You’ll create a free account on the Usercentrics Privacy Policy Generator platform to build your privacy policy and receive your unique Policy ID. It only takes a minute and ensures your policy stays automatically updated and compliant.

Q2: Where do I find my Policy ID?

After setting up your privacy policy in your Usercentrics dashboard, you’ll find your Policy ID under your generated policy details. It looks like this: 2b3a23a0-94de-49c1-8bb2-0a4a847dd425. Copy and paste it into the plugin settings in WordPress.

Q3: Can I customize the privacy policy text?

Yes, customization happens directly in your Usercentrics dashboard. Any edits you make — such as company name, contact info, or policy sections — are instantly reflected on your WordPress site. You always stay in full control of your content.

Q4: Does this plugin work with page builders?

Absolutely. It’s fully compatible with all major WordPress page builders, including Elementor, Divi, Gutenberg, Beaver Builder, and others. No extra configuration needed.

Q5: Is this plugin GDPR compliant?

Yes. The plugin displays a policy generated through the Usercentrics Privacy Policy Generator, which follows GDPR, CCPA, and global data protection standards. Final compliance depends on your specific settings and website practices.

Q6: How is this different from other privacy policy plugins?

Most plugins create a static policy you have to update manually. This plugin connects directly to Usercentrics — a professional consent and privacy platform — so your policy updates automatically whenever laws change. You never have to worry about outdated text.

Q7: Do I need coding skills to use this?

Not at all. Installation takes less than two minutes — install, paste your Policy ID, select a page, and publish. The plugin handles everything automatically in the background.

Q8: Will this slow down my website?

No. The plugin is lightweight (under 100KB) and built with performance in mind. It loads policy content asynchronously, so it won’t affect your site’s speed or Core Web Vitals.

Q9: Does it work with my theme?

Yes. It works seamlessly with all WordPress themes, from custom builds to popular frameworks, without requiring any code adjustments.

Q10: Can I use this on multiple websites?

Yes. You can install the plugin on as many WordPress sites as you manage. Each site will simply need its own Policy ID to ensure the correct privacy policy content displays.

Q11: What languages are supported?

Your privacy policy can be generated in multiple languages — English, German, Italian, and Dutch. The plugin automatically detects the visitor’s browser language and displays the correct version when available.

Q12: Do I need a Usercentrics CMP subscription?

No. The Privacy Policy Generator works independently of the Usercentrics Consent Management Platform (CMP). You can use this plugin for free, whether or not you’re using the CMP.

Q13: How do I update my privacy policy?

You don’t need to update it manually. Whenever you make changes in your Usercentrics dashboard — or when laws change — the updates appear automatically on your WordPress site.

Q14: Can I preview the policy before publishing?

Yes. You can preview your privacy policy in WordPress before publishing it live. This ensures everything looks right and matches your site’s style.

Q15: What happens if I deactivate the plugin?

Your WordPress page content remains untouched. If you deactivate the plugin, your site simply reverts to its original content — no data or settings are lost.

Q16: Is my data secure?

Yes. The plugin follows WordPress security best practices. It only communicates securely with Usercentrics servers to retrieve your policy text. No personal or user data is collected, stored, or shared.
