  • the user is informed why you are requesting this information in plain and easy to understand language.
  • the user knows what data you collect about them
  • the user knows what you will be using the data for
  • the user has actively consented to your usage of the data

This plugin does NOT make your web site legally compliant, it is just a step in the process.
