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, and also check with Google and/or configure your Google account settings and/or tracking code as required by GDPR.
Works perfectly with or without Gutenberg
