Bare-bones plugin

Works fine, good for quick and easy disclaimers, but it’s very bare-bones. The display customisation affects all notices, it’s not on a per-notice basis. Can’t seem to change screen position of notice

Easy to use and free!

The best plugin to create popup disclaimers when opening the site! Great job guys!!

Useful and well developed

Really well developed plugin! I needed a plugin to quickly create a popup for age acceptance. Fast and lightweight. I was surprised by the cookie duration management. I recommend it!
