GDPR’s own cookie

Hi @clemens3636,

The plugin stores the user preference in a cookie named viewed_cookie_policy and sets the value yes/no. The duration of viewed_cookie_policy is 365 days. It will automatically be deleted after one year. The cookie will be reset when the user accepts or rejects again from the website.

Thank you, @webtoffee. That’s what I like to know. So I must not take the name of the cookie literally. It does not register that the policy page was opened. Right?

Hi @clemens3636,

It is not just applicable to the privacy policy page. It saves the preference of the user across the entire site.

Fine. You’re great.

Hi @clemens3636,

Leave us a review if you like the plugin and support.??

I already did. Isn’t it a problem that you store a cookie if the visitor does not want to store a cookie?

@clemens3636,

This cookie does not store any sensitive information except yes/no value and there is no other way to save the user preference.
