Cookie policy: 5-star. Functionality: 4..5-star

The plugin generates a very exhaustive cookie policy that should satisfy even the most pedantic lawyer.

However it generates automatically an extra site that I can’t edit. It’s not compatible with my page builder (oxygenbuiler). I can’t even copy the html and integrate it into the oxygen-frontend. Not sure if it messes with other page builders also. I also can’t redirect it to my existing privacy policy.

Conclusion: I can’t use it at all without breaking my website’s design.

EDIT: After getting the answers below I change from 4 to 5 star. The plugin offers more opportunities than I realised at first. Only thing I could complain about is that I still can’t influence the shortcode output directly. But this is a minor issue now and in most cases not relevant.

Hi @ascripter.

Thank you for your feedback!

We will have a look at Oxygenbuilder.

We add a simple shortcode to generate the cookie policy. You can find the shortcode here: https://complianz.io/used-shortcodes-by-complianz/. You can add the shortcode in the page-builder, on the current or a new page.

You can’t edit the page directly, but in the wizard, before and after the shortcode, you can add or edit the content. We will make sure to find out if everything works with Oxygenbuilder.

What would like to redirect to your Privacy Policy? If it’s the URL on the Cookie Banner, you can follow this article: https://complianz.io/changing-the-read-more-url-on-the-cookie-banner/

If it’s something else, let us know!

Thanks again, regards Aert

Hi @ascripter,

As promised we had look a Oxygenbuilder, they have a convenient sandbox for testing, so I used their set-up to test Complianz with Oxygen.

http://bemused-kestrel.w5.wpsandbox.pro/cookie-policy/ (valid for 7 days, because of the sandbox used.)

We have installed Complianz and ran the wizard with dummy content.
1. The shortcode works when the page is created.
2. When edited with Oxygen the shortcode is wrapped by the Oxygenbuilder and will no longer work. We found this forum thread: https://oxygenbuilder.com/forums/topic/ninja-forms-shortcode-crashes-oxygen/
3. It seems to happen with different popular plugins, to edit the Cookie Policy page after generating, you will need to add the shortcode in a WordPress shortcode element. Via the Oxygen page menu and the page will appear.

We will leave a support ticket at Oxygen to see if we can help in resolving the issue.

If you have any other questions. Please let us know!

Regards Aert

Hello @aahulsebos,

thanks for looking so deeply into my problem. The usage of the shortcode is really helpful.

However I’d still like to edit the output of the shortcode because I don’t want my email address to get scraped. But the formfield validates if the address has a correct syntax.

I typically go with replacing @ by ＠ (0xFF20) and . by another unicode dot-like character (0x2024). So the form rejects my input.

Hi @ascripter,

We have an e-mail obfuscator built-in:

https://github.com/rlankhorst/complianz-gdpr/blob/3dee71eb4f79493941ece072da24b1d8b67c3a3f/core/php/class-document-core.php#L455-L476

With those exact characters obfuscated. We can have a look to have the e-mail validated and obfuscated or open, without validation to use your own methods. We will let you know!

Thanks!
