WP Cookie Law 是一款 WordPress 外掛，可以立即安裝在啟用 WordPress 的網站上。每當任何人在外掛安裝後首次訪問您的網站時，會彈出一個瀏覽器彈出視窗或下拉選單，專門詢問他們是否同意在他們的設備中使用 cookie。幾分鐘內，您就可以完全遵守法規。
什麼是歐盟 Cookie 法規？
歐盟 Cookie 法規是一項歐盟隱私指令，於2012年5月26日生效，這意味著您必須得到使用者的同意才能在他們的設備上放置 cookie。
什麼是 Cookie？
Cookie 是一個可以在您的設備上存儲小段數據的小型文本文件。這項法律不僅與 cookie 相關。任何類型的本地瀏覽器存儲，例如 flash cookie 或 HTML 本地存儲，也包含在內。
這很重要嗎？
嗯，因為 cookie 只是一個文本文件，它可以存儲有關使用者的任何信息。問題不在於 cookie 本身，而在於在您不知情的情況下在您的設備上存儲個人信息。
是否有任何例外情況？
是的，如果 cookie 的使用是隱含的，例如登錄應用程序或將某些東西添加到購物車中，那麼您無需告知用戶，因為這是明顯的，您需要存儲有關他們的信息。
但大多數 cookie 將來自簡單的分析、Facebook 按鈕或在您的網站上放置橫幅，因此您需要獲得許可。
WP Cookie Law 外掛對我有什麼幫助？
WP Cookie Law 外掛將：
允許您通過簡單的文本框快速輕鬆地編輯用戶消息。
允許您選擇灰色框或下拉來顯示您的消息。
我的下一步是什麼？
第一件事是下載外掛並安裝它，接下來您應該對您的網站進行 cookie 審核。在審核中，您需要將您的 cookie 分類為以下四個類別：
必要的：為您的網站正常運行所必需，例如將物品添加到購物車中。
非必要但無害的：對您的網站運行不是必要的，但不包含任何跟踪信息。
相對具有侵入性:用於跟踪您網站上的人，但不存儲任何有關他們的個人信息。
非常具有侵入性：用於跟踪您網站上的人，並提供可識別個人的信息。
下一步是更新您的隱私政策，以反映您的審核發現的網站中使用的不同 cookie 類別。

原文外掛簡介
What is the EU Cookie Law?
The EU Cookie law is an EU-Privacy Directive that came into action on the 26th may 2012, which means you have to get your users consent to place cookies on their device.
What is a Cookie?
A cookie is a small text file that can store small bits of data on your device. The Law does not only relate to cookies though. Any type of local browser storage such as flash cookies or HTML local storage are included as well.
What is the big deal?
Well, because a cookie is just a text file it can store anything about a user. The problem is not with cookies as such, but storing personal information about you on your device without you knowing.
Are there any exceptions?
Yes, if the use of the cookie is implied like logging into an application or adding something to a shopping cart then you do not need to inform the user about that as it is obvious you will need to store information about them
But most cookies are going to come from simple analytic, Facebook buttons, or by having banners on your site, and for this you do need permission.
What does WP Cookie Law plugin do for me?
The WP cookie Law plugin will
Allow you to edit your message to your users quickly and easily through simple text boxes.
Allow you to choose between a light box or slide down to display your message
What are my next steps?
The first thing is to download the plugin and get it installed, next you should do an audit of your site for cookies. In the audit you need to classify your cookies into four categories:
Essential Required for your website to function, for example adding an item to your shopping cart
Non-Essential but harmless Not essential to the running of your site, but does not contain any tracking information
Fairly Intrusive Used to track people on your site, but does not store any personal information on them
Very Intrusive Used to track people on your site and provides personally identifiable information
The next step is to then update your privacy policy to reflect the different categories of cookies used in your site as discovered from your audit.
