Hello Pascal, My personal opinion is: as there is an existing good solution, Joomla! does not really need a GDPR solution short term, but more of a GDPR framework offering possibilities to users. A cookie manager (cookie banner) solution is in the making, but as many projects in Joomla it lacks in manpower and people pushing forward to get it done: https://github.com/joomla-projects/gsoc21_cookie-manager/tree/final-cookie-manager |

Hello, I searched now for hours how to write a feature request. Then I found this https://docs.joomla.org/How_do_you_request_a_feature%3F How do you request a feature? I tagged it with the "feature request"-tag. That is what I did. But here it looks completly different. Thank you for the link about the Cookie Manager (Cookie Banner). What can we do about the manpower? Best regards |

@ PCT1991 I would like to agree that it is necessary to have the possibility to restrict the use of cookies in a CMS system. Even if this would mean that the functions are limited (e.g. as long as the end user only browses and does not log in to edit pages, rate or give feedback etc). On the other hand, there are too many ways to design and implement a GDPR cookie banner solution for a framework like Joomla! to have a complete turnkey solution implemented. If you are interested I started to write a tutorial on docs.joomla.org about a DIY cookie warning. Just search for cookie warning tutorial. If you like, feel free to send me a message, then we can exchange requirements. You also find my contact form if you look at issue #39100 at joomla! issue tracker. |

Hello Joomla-Community,
Data protection law has been in force in Europe since 2018.
A handful of GDPR plugins were programmed for Joomla. But only one on the market, which you also have to buy, has observed all legal points.
As an IT expert, I simply do not understand why a cookie banner has not been implemented in Joomla or in other CMS for a long time.
It is important that a website visitor has to agree before loading scripts or fonts from other websites. Likewise, not a single cookie may be set before consent has been given.
The law also says that cookies must be described to the website visitor. Name, purpose, duration, ...
In addition, a website visitor must be able to withdraw their consent at any time.
For this reason I am requesting this feature. It's been almost 5 years and neither in Joomla nor in other CMS was something integrated. It's the law. So it should be anchored at the core of every CMS.
BTW this is the only plugin which provide all the right functions for Joomla:
https://extensions.joomla.org/extension/gdpr/
The other plugins are just wrong for the EU. This can get very, very expensive if a law agent contact you, because some Google Fonts get downloaded or a Cookie get setted without a permission of the user.
Thank you in advance!
Best regards
Pascal
