PROTECT USER PRIVACY WITH THE A1 GDPR COMPLIANCE PLUGIN FOR WORDPRESS

Introducing the A1 GDPR Compliance Plugin

Privacy laws are constantly evolving, and your website needs to keep up. That’s why we created the A1 GDPR Compliance Plugin — a lightweight, all-in-one solution to handle cookie consent, script blocking, and data-subject requests (DSAR) right inside WordPress.

Whether you’re using Google Analytics, Rumble embeds, or Facebook Pixel, this plugin ensures they only run after proper user consent — keeping your site compliant with GDPR and ePrivacy regulations.

✅ Key Features

• Cookie Banner or Footer Bar – unobtrusive, fully customizable banner that appears until consent is given.

• Granular Consent Controls – users can allow or reject cookies by category or per individual service (Analytics, Marketing, Rumble, Facebook Pixel, etc.).

• Script Blocking – automatically prevents non-essential scripts from running until consent is granted.

• DSAR Form (Data Subject Access Request) – built-in form for users to request data export or deletion (sent directly to your admin email).

• Geo Targeting – display the banner only to EU/EEA visitors or to all visitors (you choose).

• Consent Logs – store and export up to 200 recent consent records in CSV format.

• Easy Shortcodes – add buttons and forms anywhere:

  • [gdpr_manage_prefs] – opens cookie preferences

  • [gdpr_request] – DSAR request form

  • [gdpr_ga4 id="G-XXXXXXX"] – Google Analytics 4 integration

  • [gdpr_fb_pixel id="123456789"] – Facebook Pixel integration

  • [gdpr_rumble url="https://rumble.com/embed/..."] – consent-based Rumble embeds

• Gutenberg Patterns – pre-made blocks for Cookie Preferences and DSAR form.

• Fully Customizable – colors, text, and services editable in Settings → A1 GDPR.

⚙️ Installation & Setup

1. Upload and Activate the Plugin
   Go to Plugins → Add New → Upload Plugin and install your zipfile.zip file (in your download).

2. Open the Settings Page
   In Settings → A1 GDPR, enable the plugin and configure:

   • Privacy Policy URL

   • Admin email for DSAR requests

   • Banner colors

   • Geo targeting (EU-only or everyone)

3. Add the Shortcodes

   • Add [gdpr_manage_prefs] in your footer or menu.

   • Add [gdpr_request] on a new “Data Request” or “Privacy Tools” page.

4. Block Your Third-Party Scripts Until Consent
   Example for Google Analytics:

<script type="text/plain" data-a1gdpr-category="analytics" data-a1gdpr-service="ga4" src="https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtag/js?id=G-XXXX"></script>

1. Test and Confirm
   Clear the a1gdpr_consent cookie, reload, and verify the banner appears.

💡 Why It Matters

Under GDPR and ePrivacy regulations, you can’t run non-essential cookies (analytics, ads, tracking pixels) until the user actively consents. Many website owners think they’re compliant with a privacy page alone—but that’s not enough.
A1 GDPR ensures your visitors’ privacy rights are respected from the first page load, giving you peace of mind and helping you avoid penalties.

🛡️ Build Trust and Comply the Right Way

Modern users care about their privacy. Showing that you respect it not only keeps your site legal—it also builds trust and credibility with your audience.
