Biggest opportunity: Swap “gdpr”, “google analytics” and “ga4” for “opt in”, “out link” and “google analytics 4”. “gdpr” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “opt in” sits at #4 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “google analytics” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “out link” sits at #5 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “ga4” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #24. “google analytics 4” sits at #13 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

2.7%

of downloads still active

At least 3K of 111.7K 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 5 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.

    Well deserved review for implementing a mega advertising banner which appears in the whole admin area, no matter if you are on the plugin settings page or not. I hope this ad pays off.

    Thx for that nice plugin, only feature I miss is the multipliable language support e.g. with WPML. At the moment you can only setup one language which will be shown over all private policy pages.
