    WP GDPR COMPLIANCE PLUGIN
    GDPR compliant quickly!
    https://www.wpgdprc.com/faq/

    Is my site 100% GDPR compliant after installing the plugin?
    No. At this point it is impossible to say what makes a site 100% compliant with GDPR or not because the regulation is not specific on (technical) solutions.

    With future updates we’ll expand the plugin to include more features helping you take care of as many parts of GDPR as possible.

    What does this plugin do?
    With the WP GDPR Compliance plugin it is possible to automatically add a GDPR checkbox to Contact Form 7, Gravity Forms, WooCommerce and WordPress Comments. By ticking this checkbox your visitors and customers explicitly allow you to handle their personal data for a defined purpose (i.e. taking care of their order).

    Hackers Exploit Flaw in GDPR Compliance Plugin for WordPress
    https://www.securityweek.com/hackers-exploit-flaw-gdpr-compliance-plugin-wordpress

    A critical security flaw affecting a GDPR compliance plugin for WordPress has been exploited in the wild to take control of vulnerable websites, users have been warned.

    The WordPress GDPR Compliance plugin, which has over 100,000 active installations, is designed to help the administrators of websites and online shops become compliant with the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). It supports plugins such as Contact Form, Gravity Forms, WordPress Comments, and WooCommerce.

    According to researchers in Defiant’s Wordfence team, the vulnerabilities can be exploited by unauthenticated attackers to obtain privileged access to targeted websites by adding new admin accounts.

    Shortly after the news broke that the GDPR Compliance flaws have been exploited in the wild, WordPress notified the developer and deactivated the plugin on its official store. The application was quickly reinstated after its creators released version 1.4.3 on November 7, which should resolve the vulnerabilities.

    One of the easiest ways to comply with GDPR is to simply add a required checkbox to your contact form that allows the user to consent that their submitted data is being collected and stored. However, the important part here is “easiest.” Not all contact forms necessarily need consent.
