Biggest opportunity: Swap “consent”, “cookies” and “gdpr” for “touch”, “compliance” and “eprivacy”. “consent” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “touch” sits at #5 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “cookies” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “compliance” sits at #12 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “gdpr” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “eprivacy” sits at #16 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

How it's measured →4.9%
of downloads still active
At least 8K of 163.6K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Privacy & Consent plugin keeps 2.1%, across 502 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Privacy & Consent plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.
This plugin shipped 4 releases in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

wp.org is where the directory puts the plugin for that search. On merit is where it would sit if results were ranked on rating, support and updates, without the install boost. The last column is how far the wp.org position moved, from our first reading in the last 90 days to the latest.

(Edit message au bas.) [La mise en place a l’air simple et pratique, mais l’extension a fait planter mon site… J’ai désactivé l’extension pour que mon site internet puisse fonctionner à nouveau.] L’équipe a été très rapide pour me contacter suite à mon problème et a réussi à le résoudre. Je vais corriger ma note dans ce sens. This topic was modified 2 years, 7 months ago by dpm21.

En tant qu’agence experte sur le CMS WordPress, nous utilisons l’extension de cookies Axeptio depuis quelques mois maintenant et nous ne pouvons plus nous en passer. Elle est non seulement facile à installer et à utiliser, mais aussi très efficace. Elle assure une gestion optimale des cookies, ce qui me permet de naviguer en toute sérénité, sachant que ma confidentialité est respectée. Ce que nous aimons particulièrement avec Axeptio, c’est sa transparence. L’extension me donne un contrôle total sur les cookies que je souhaite accepter ou refuser. De plus, son interface est très intuitive, ce qui rend son utilisation agréable et simple. Nous sommes également impressionnés par le service client d’Axeptio. Ils sont toujours prêts à aider et à répondre à toutes mes questions concernant la protection de ma vie privée en ligne. En somme, nous recommandons vivement l’extension de cookies Axeptio à tous ceux qui sont soucieux de leur confidentialité en ligne. C’est un petit pas pour l’utilisateur, mais un grand pas pour le respect de notre vie privée sur Internet.
