Q&A
These are the most frequent questions and answers, Pre-Sale. Ask a question if something is missing.
Hi, does your compliance plugin work with Mailchimp and Gravity Forms as well?
You are working with forms, with or without an API call to Mailchimp to add subscribers to your list ‘works’ with Complianz as well. Our wizard ensures you configure both correctly, with the Cookie Statement and Privacy Policy both adapted to Mailchimp and your forms. You can add a consent box in our wizard or do it yourself with the help of our documentation. Complianz does not handle any data collected by the forms or Mailchimp. Gravity Forms & Mailchimp both have GDPR features with which we integrate, so you’re set!
Hi there, great. Tool. Happy to go premium, but what I need is an option to localize the texts.
Localizing the text strings is possible with premium. With WPML, Polylang, Loco Translate, and other plugins, the default and custom strings (your custom Cookie Banner text, e.g.) are available for translation. The plugin comes with six different default languages. When changing our default text, the strings are untranslated, and you should translate them yourself.
I have my privacy policy. The Read More should send them to that page.
Changing the link on the Cookie Banner is possible. Use this article to help with changing the URL.
It would be best if you didn’t generate any content pages; we have a single page that covers privacy and cookies.
By default, the Cookie Policy is generated by our plugin; you can deactivate the Privacy Policy & Disclaimer if needed. We recommend generating the Cookie Policy and redirecting it to your preferred page. Or change the URL on your Cookie Banner and NOINDEX the Cookie Policy page. Either through a plugin like Yoast or disallow Google bots in your robots.txt. One of the main functions of Complianz is to generate policies; we would like to keep it that way for most of our users!
Is there a way to buy your plugin without being billed yearly?
Our plugin is subscription-based. The reason being is that we keep developing and updating our plugin for years to come, delivering premium support along the way. We don’t have a lifetime deal, maybe in the future. Until then, you’re free to cancel your subscription if you think our new features, updates and support is not worth the yearly payment.
Is Complianz available for non-WordPress websites, like Drupal or Magento?
Unfortunately, not….yet. We are firm believers a Privacy Suite should be developed to add to the core functions of the CMS in question. We have tried to isolate a core of our functions and migrate to other CMS’s, but again, being firm believers in improving upon the core, we have chosen to concentrate on developing and improving our WordPress plugin first before ever migrating to another CMS. We love WordPress, first and foremost!
I am using Google Tag Manager for Google Analytics (cmplz_event_functional) and AdWords (cmplz_event_all). But in my Cookie Policy, neither Tag Manager, Google Analytics nor AdWords is mentioned. Is this correct, and why?
Before our website scan can find your set cookies, the container should be live and working. You can add your cookies in the wizard if you’re missing or report unknown cookies if the description is not yet filled. A Tag Manager cookie will not appear because it’s essentially just a container with cookies from other services.
I have a website running WPML in 3 languages. I would like to know more about its integration with the Complianz cookie notice.
Complianz integrates with WPML well. The cookie notice will appear in 6 languages by default. For custom strings, your can use WPML Translation Management or look for your custom strings to translate them as you wish. Also, you can use browser redirect based on language preference, so the Cookie Banner and documents appear based on the user’s preference. With GEO IP enabled, Complianz can serve Banners with six languages for three different regions, with a 4th coming. Canada!
I would ask if I could provide cookie notice in the browser language. To be more precise: if a visitor comes from Italy, I want to provide information about cookies in Italian. Thanks
Yes. With the right configuration, this is definitely possible. Please read this article for instructions!
I love the features that your plugin offers. I’m considering getting the premium edition and wanted to know can it work with Forminator from WPMU DEV? Also, how long does it usually take to configure?
Hello! Yes, it does, and depending on the complexity of your website, it might take between 5 and 30 minutes, with the latter being the most complex situation we have seen. If you’re choosing both regions, you need at least 10 minutes to complete the wizard. We like playing with the A/B tests, so we take about 50 minutes every time. And end up with ten different cookie banners.
