Overview

As required in the laws of GDPR, websites aren’t allowed to store unencrypted ip adresses.
But this is the case by default in WordPress. This Plugin prevents the saving of ip adresses and creates a menu item in backend with the opportunity to delete all previous stored ip adresses.
This plugin provides the ability to automatically remove ip addresses after a user-defined time.
The GDPR conformity hasn’t been proved by an lawyer and only reflects the estimation of the author. If you have further questions is legal advice required.

Makes admin life easier
by stebato·4 years ago

This plugin seems to work very smooth. I have used it for a couple of months without experiencing any problems due to it.
Having a plugin deleting ip-addresses after some time instead of regularily doing manual deletion is labour saving and reliable.
I am very satisfied.

Sehr schönes DSGVO konformes Plugin
by backpackerdude·5 years ago

Da das regelmäßige Löschen von den IP-Adressen der Kommentaren seit dem inkrafttreten der DSGVO ja Pflicht ist, ist dieses Plugin ideal.

Remove Comment IP
by sywwow·5 years ago·1 reply

I’ve been searching for something this simple for ages.
The problem I have is I do not want my readers revealing their location when they make a comment – in my opinion, sending the ip is a security flaw (I’ve not had any issues but am glad I’ve got this now)
