 * Hi,
 * i have to check my system if it works legaly with the new data-law in europe.
 * if data is exported to third party systems, i have to check their seriousness
   and have to make contracts with them based on their privacy policy.
 * There are a lot of plugins in the internet that “phone home” before they work
 * – which data is send to wordpress, when i work with the system?
    – how can i 
   controll third party plugins, if they work legaly? – how can i sign contracts
   with you and them?
 * or have i to close my website?
 * Regards Bugscout

 * WordPress introduced tools to assist with GDPR compatibility in 4.9.6, but GDPR
   compatibility for specific plugins and themes is up to their developers. Also,
   you, as the site owner/operator, are the one responsible for ensuring compliance
   the GDPR and any local variations that may be introduced.
 * Click SETTINGS->Privacy to access the current GDPR tools.
 * Please read this post for all things GDPR: [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/gdpr-your-plugins-and-themes/](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/gdpr-your-plugins-and-themes/)?
