    Hi,

    Sorry for the late reply.

    A theme can only offer a basic implementation. To be on the safe side plugins specialised for GDPR certainly can offer more options and can stay up to date with laws.

    Depending on your needs a plugin might be the better solution.

    Best regards,
    Günter

    With the new GDPR rules, the banner must keep track of what each user has chosen. Will this be available in the new version in the Enfold banner?

    Just seen this and thought I’d share a solution that meets all of the criteria using Enfolds built in Cookie Consent System.
    Enfolds built in Cookie manager is more compliant than 99% of other websites systems out there. The only thing it doesnt not do is store the values of when a user clicked consent. If you require this then you will need a plugin like Cookie Bot.

    Users should be able to turn cookies on and off whenever they like. You can do this by embedding the shortcodes in your privacy page for each on/off option OR you can set the cookie icon to remain in the corner of the page so you can change your consent at any point in time.

    Set cookies to essential only and then user must opt in
    Change the buttons to Accept All and Settings on the popup
    Change the buttons in the modal to Accept All and Do Not Accept

    From Enfold > Privacy and Cookies > Cookie Handling > Advanced Options > Show Reopen badge
    OR
    Use the Privacy and Cookies > Shortcodes to add the options into your privacy and cookie page directly.

    From Cookie Bot:
    Prior and explicit consent must be obtained before any activation of cookies (apart from whitelisted, necessary cookies).

    • Consents must be granular, i.e. users must be able to activate some cookies rather than others and not be forced to consent to either all or none.
    • Consent must be freely given, i.e. not allowed to be forced.
    • Consents must be as easily withdrawn as they are given.
    • Consents must be securely stored as legal documentation.
    • Consent must be renewed at least once per year. However, some national data protection guidelines recommend more frequent renewal, e.g. 6 months.
    • Check your local data protection guidelines for compliance.

    No problem.

    I have an example of this that I just published.

    Take a look here:

    and privacy policy with cookie settings button to reopen the modal here:

    Hi @thomasjarvisdesign the Cookie Bot plugin is paid with a subscription or is there a free version to register only?

    @paoluccimarketing2015

    Most are paid subscriptions.
    I have the following running on a DIVI Theme site: https://wordpress.org/plugins/gdpr-cookie-compliance/
    But again the free version does everything Enfold can do without a plugin.

    I would Just use the built in Privacy and Cookie Popup built in to Enfold.
    I use the built in tools on 50 Enfold sites on my server. Works very well.

    Configured as per previous post is compliant for WordPress Essential Cookies and Google Analytics.

    You can add extra cookies like Facebook Pixel yourself in the advanced settings.

    Hope this helps.

    Thanks a lot for the answer. It is configurable, the only thing that would be missing at this point is the register of who has enabled the cookie or not.

    Most of the paid add-ons cover this. Its not easy to implement – Which is why they are paid add-ons.

    Without doing thorough research CookieYes appears to be free for small websites and can be installed on WordPress sites manually.
    http://www.cookieyes.com/cookieyes-code-installation-on-wordpress/

    The law states you have to be able to prove consent took place. Which is kind of weird because Cookies can be deleted meaning consent from one user may actually be given several times in one 12 month period from the initial consent. Its a really weird part of the law because of how cookies work.

    I think you may have to Go to Goolge for a solution on this one.

    At this point in time I wont be adding this feature to my client’s sites. But I will likely have to soon to be able to comply with this part of the law.

    While I think about it.
    The proof of consent may actually be available in Google Analytics.
    I’d have to dig into this more.
    For my sites – Every time a user clicks accept Google Analytics starts tracking. Therefore I should be able to find a record of when each session starts.
