Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about MantaWeb Consent Shield – Cookie Consent Banner & Real Cookie Blocker (GDPR, CCPA, Tikun 13)

Yes. Consent Shield uses a PHP output-buffer rewriter that intercepts the HTML before it is sent to the browser. Scripts are replaced with inert placeholders (type="text/plain" data-pcm-src="..."). A lightweight bootstrap JS file activates only the scripts belonging to categories the visitor has consented to. This happens even when PHP is not involved in serving a cached page.

Yes. The HTML served to all visitors is identical - scripts are disabled in the static HTML. The client-side JS reads the visitor's consent cookie and re-enables scripts in real time. Caching systems serve the same cached HTML to everyone; the per-visitor decision is made in the browser.

Yes for the plugin's scope. Consent Shield provides: prior consent before non-essential scripts run, granular category selection, a clear withdrawal mechanism, an immutable consent audit log with IP anonymization, and a policy versioning mechanism. Your legal counsel should review your overall compliance posture including your privacy policy content.

Basic CCPA support is included: a "Do Not Sell" flow via the consent banner. Geo-targeted CCPA-specific banner text for US visitors is available in the separate Consent Shield Pro add-on.

Yes within the plugin's scope. Consent Shield covers: informed consent before non-essential data collection, granular category choices, visitor withdrawal rights (floating pill + DSAR shortcode), and an immutable consent log. The remaining Tikun 13 obligations - legal privacy policy text, consent checkboxes across forms, and DPO registration - require external work. See the Tikun 13 Compliance page inside the plugin for a checklist.

No. Every consent record, admin log entry, and configuration option is stored in your WordPress database. Nothing is sent to MantaWeb or any other external service.

In a dedicated pcm_consents database table using INSERT-only writes. Records are never updated or deleted via normal plugin operation, preserving a complete audit trail. You can export the full log to CSV from the admin UI.

Go to Privacy Management > Privacy Settings, then click the Custom Texts tab. Every string the visitor sees - banner message, button labels, category names and descriptions, privacy policy link text, and the floating pill label - can be overridden per-field. Leave a field blank to use the default (shown as placeholder).

Two options: 1. The floating privacy pill appears automatically in the position you configured in the wizard. Clicking it reopens the consent banner. 2. Add [mantacs_dsar_button] to any page to place a "Request my data" button that opens the visitor's mail client with a pre-filled DSAR email to your DPO.

Go to Privacy Management > Visitor Activity Log and click Export CSV. The export is logged in the Admin Activity Log with the username that performed it.
