FAQ
What is GPC (Global Privacy Control)?
GPC is a browser-level signal (Sec-GPC header) that tells websites the user doesn't want their data sold or shared. California's CPRA and Colorado's CPA require businesses to honor it as a valid opt-out.
Do I need this if I already have a cookie consent banner?
Probably yes. Most consent banners only block client-side scripts they control. WooCommerce itself fires tracking events at the server level that banners miss. This plugin closes that gap.
Does this replace a cookie consent plugin?
No, it complements one. Use a consent banner (Complianz, CookieYes, etc.) for GDPR/ePrivacy cookie consent, and this plugin for GPC signal detection and server-side WooCommerce enforcement.
