Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Record of Consent Extension for Complianz

No. This plugin is made to work alongside the free Complianz plugin by adding just the consent recording part. If you want all the extra features, you would use Complianz Pro instead.

Yes. This plugin relies on the free Complianz plugin to be active. Think of it as an add-on that extends Complianz's consent features.

No. This plugin is specifically designed to work with Complianz.

Each consent record carries a SHA-256 hash calculated from its data and a salt. If a record is changed directly in the database without its hash being recalculated, the integrity check will flag the mismatch.

A GDPR consent record requires only strictly necessary information to demonstrate compliance. Detailed geographic data, like country or city of origin, generally exceeds data minimization principles.

If your website doesn’t use marketing cookies, Complianz hides that category in the banner but still keeps it in the background data. That’s why you might see “marketing allowed” in your Record of Consent — it’s just a placeholder in the system. No marketing cookies are actually loaded or tracked, and you can safely ignore it.

The plugin records an anonymized/truncated IP address as supporting evidence next to the User ID, timestamp, consent choices, and policy version. Storing anonymized/truncated IPs are not mandated by GDPR, but are recommended practice, because they offer a perfect compromise between compliance and operational utility.

This usually happens because some hosting providers use reverse proxies or load balancers that don't forward the original visitor IP to PHP. In those cases, server-side tools (like this plugin) may record the proxy's IP, while browser-based analytics tools (which are usually client-side JS) capture the correct visitor IP. This is a hosting infrastructure issue, not a plugin limitation. The plugin correctly stores consent records, but unreliable IP forwarding can make it harder to match records to specific users, which may affect compliance with data subject access or deletion requests. The plugin includes a PHP multi-header fallback system to detect the real visitor IP when possible, by checking headers such as X-Forwarded-For or HTTP_CF_CONNECTING_IP. However, this cannot guarantee accuracy in all environments. To improve detection: Ask your hosting provider to enable X-Forwarded-For or X-Real-IP Use a hosting service that fully supports IP forwarding Use multiple identifiers (IP + User Agent + timestamp + UID)

The Trusted Proxy IPs feature might matter if your site runs behind a proxy or CDN, meaning a service that sits between visitors and your server. In that case the plugin may record that service's address instead of the visitor's, so the truncated IP context is lost.
