Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site. Why active installs don’t tell the whole story →

Overview

About this plugin

Use the [cookies] shortcode to produce a table of all the cookies your WordPress site uses; showing cookie name, category, description and duration.

In April 2012 the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) UK issued the ICC UK cookie guide ( a 15-page / 296KB PDF report ).

The guidance, which has been welcomed by the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO), contains information on the different categories of cookies that website operators use.

The ICC UK cookie guide suggests some standard wording to include in your website’s Privacy policy.

This wording includes: A list of all the cookies used in this website by category is set out below.

This plugin will help you to create the list.

By default the list is dynamically generated taking into account the active plugins on the website.

This plugin does not implement anything to help you obtain the user’s consent to place a cookie on their device.

There are other plugins to help you do that.
