Actually this plugin itself already is GDPR compliant, because it only adds a slice of code — it does not collect any user information whatsoever. For that, you will need to ask Google as to their plans for making their Analytics program compliant with GDPR.
Hi Jeff
thanks, but that was not really an answer to my question. I have no doubt, that you plugin is GDPR compliant.
My question was, if you have any plans to integrate an opt-out-solution for GA?
Cheers
I guess I don’t understand the question.. an “opt-out-solution for GA”.. opt out of what, exactly?
For the user to opt out for GA.
There are Special plugins for this, like this one https://de.ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/google-analytics-opt-out/
but I assume, it would be not so complicated to integrate the function in your plugin (but I am not a developer)
Hmmm… very interesting. I was not aware of anything like this. I will investigate and see about a possible implementation in a future version of the plugin. Thank you for taking the time to explain, your feedback is appreciated.
Hi
did you come to a conclusion?
Cheers

I would like to second on that topic. In order for us European webmasters to be GDPR compliant, we need to give users the option to opt-out of the recording of any user data.
Integrating the opt-out functionality should also make it easier to deactivate tracking alltogether for individual pages, should it not?
