For complete documentation, visit the Help tab on the plugin settings screen in the WP Admin Area. **Cookie Use** When enabled, this plugin sets a few small/simple cookies in the visitor's web browser. This enables the Opt-Out Box to work its magic. **GDPR** This plugin does not collect any user data. Even so, the tracking code added by this plugin is used by Google to collect all sorts of user data. So this plugin does _not_ do anything to make your site _less_ compliant with GDPR. I have done my best to ensure that this plugin is 100% GDPR compliant, but I'm not a lawyer so can't guarantee anything. To ensure that your site is compliant with GDPR, please consult an attorney or qualified professional, and also check with Google and/or configure your Google account settings and/or tracking code as required by GDPR. Always best to be informed and play it safe. == Installation == **Installation** 1. Upload the plugin and activate via the WP Plugins screen 2. Visit GA Pro > License to enter your license 3.
