    Are TSF and TSFEM extensions GDPR compliant – https://www.eugdpr.org/
    On 25 Mai 2018 all service providers and website owners whose websites are visible in EU (more or less all who have a website) are required to fulfill all GDPR requirements which are the strongest ever seen with huge fines!
    As SEO plugins send data forth and back from users and site visitors and uses those data further very often the question is how far the TSF and TSFEM and all its Extensions are compliant with GDPR – As far as I could see there is no extra warning for users right now and also no way to disable the sending of data to external servers outside of the own server.
    Concerning sending data to external sites also the compliance i.e. with the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield framework.

    Is that plugin certificed?

    Hi, @cocopapa,

    We make every effort to protect our users’ privacy and to comply with any international regulation.
    All of our plugins (and extensions) do not collect any personal information whatsoever.

    The TSFEM plugin only sends data to our servers when the user inputs subscription details or when already connected through those means.

    The data sent is encrypted using the TLS protocol, and the data consists of the entered subscription details.
    No information about the site, apart from subscription verification details, is sent to our servers.

    To summarize, we do not process or collect any information from our users’ sites that could potentially identify a person.

    This all means we are already GDPR compliant. And we already did everything GDPR requires even before it was publically announced to be enforced.
    However, we do not explicitly state what we do as GDPR requires, but we are working on it, and this is something we must and will do before May 2018.
