Compliant with WordPress Data Export and Erasure
WordPress Data Management Features
WordPress includes features that allow site owners to export or erase user data, helping them comply with privacy laws like GDPR. These tools are vital for users’ data rights, including access to their data and the right to be forgotten.
WP Statistics Integration
WP Statistics is fully compatible with WordPress’s data export and erasure features. By default, WP Statistics does not collect personal data. However, if the “Record User Page Visits” option is enabled, it will log the User ID for site traffic analysis.
With “Record User Page Visits” Enabled:
If activated, WP Statistics will record user IDs, which are considered personal data. Correspondingly, WP Statistics will also export or erase this data when the WordPress tools are used, ensuring compliance with privacy regulations.
Using the Features
To use these features, simply navigate to the WordPress ‘Tools’ section, choose ‘Export Personal Data‘ or ‘Erase Personal Data‘, and follow the prompts. WP Statistics will automatically handle its data in accordance with your actions.
