Privacy tools for WordPress websites
WP DSGVO Tools Premium is a paid version of WP DSGVO Tools for managing common privacy and data protection elements on WordPress websites. It is optimized for Germany and Austria, while also being usable in other EU countries and third countries.
The plugin is designed around a straightforward workflow: select the services used by a website, complete a few input fields, and configure the available privacy components. It can create a cookie popup, cookie notice, data protection information, and imprint, while controlling services and embedded content.
Consent and service management
The Premium edition includes consent-related controls for website services. These include opt-in and consent management, opt-out and cancellation management, configurable consent validity, and a definable waiting period before requesting consent again.
- Cookie popup and cookie notice creation
- Display of mandatory information
- Service grouping
- Control of services and embeddings
- Style configurator
- Google Tag Manager and Matomo Tag Manager support
- Responsible person and data protection officer fields
The feature set is intended to avoid consent interfaces based on illegal nudging or psychological tricks. The source describes compliance with laws and the requirements of courts and data protection authorities as a central priority.
Legal content and multilingual websites
WP DSGVO Tools Premium can generate data protection information and create an imprint automatically. The imprint can be integrated through page selection or shortcode. The legal texts were created by the law firm Marketingrecht.eu, which specializes in IT, internet, and data protection law.
Translations were produced by sworn and certified interpreters rather than community contributors. The plugin is officially certified for WPML and also works with Polylang and WPGlobus, making it suitable for multilingual WordPress projects.
Additional privacy functions
The related WP DSGVO Tools feature set includes support for Google Analytics, Matomo, and WP Statistics. It also includes a right-to-be-forgotten function with time management, plus an automated directory query and deletion process that can provide PDF and JSON output.
These functions can help website operators organize consent, information notices, service controls, and data subject requests within one WordPress privacy workflow.
Edition status and installation
WP DSGVO Tools Premium is identified as a paid edition, but premium licenses are no longer being continued and no new features or functions are being added to WP DSGVO Tools. The publisher recommends LegalWeb Cloud as its newer premium plugin and describes it as a CMS-independent solution with API access and additional features.
To use WP DSGVO Tools Premium, add the plugin to a WordPress website, select the services in use, complete the relevant input fields, and configure the desired cookie, consent, privacy, and imprint settings. Use page selection or shortcode where an imprint integration is required, then review the displayed information and consent behavior on the website.
