WeLaw – Privacy Compliance
Privacy Compliance Built In. Not Add-On
WeLaw Privacy Compliance delivers a complete stack — consent proof, governance, vendors, ROPA, DSAR, audit trails, worldwide coverage and more — completely free.
No pageview limits, no paywalls, and your data stays exactly where it belongs: on your own server.
Compatibility
What if the others had told everything earlier?
The free plugin untold story
You install a free plugin, configure it, and… after a few days, it stops displaying the banner or blocks certain features because it has reached a limit on visits or page views.
That’s not a billing question.
It’s a compliance failure.
The outlaw consent banner risk
Displaying a Banner is not the same as being compliant. Without a consent audit trail, a script manager, and proper governance documentation, the banner is cosmetic — not compliance.
And if you’re ever audited?
The privacy paradox
Most of the best-known software solutions on the market are cloud-based solutions that process and store logs on their servers. According to the law, GDPR Art. 28, this type of software is a Data Processor, and this adds a new data flow you now have to document and justify.
The irony is built into the architecture.
WeLaw would be your choice
The Trully Free plugin
The WeLaw free plan has no pageview limits, no domain caps, no features hidden behind artificial paywalls.
Everything your website needs to achieve full legal compliance is available at no cost — including Data Subject Access Requests (DSAR), Full Audit Trail, Script Manager, Geolocation and a complete Governance module.
We charge for convenience.
Not for compliance.
The Audit Consent Banner
WeLaw gives you full audit compliance (HMAC + SHA256 + salt hashing) with immutable consent records, consent-proof, audit policy version control, advanced script blocking with Google Consent Mode v2 and much more.
Complete audit.
No add-ons.
The Privacy in Compliance
Your Server. Your Data. No Exceptions.
No third-party data processor. No visitor logs leave your website. No sub-processor relationship to disclose under GDPR Art. 28. And because it’s native, it loads asynchronously with minimal impact on your Core Web Vitals.
No slow pages.
No data leaving your server.
Global Coverage: One plugin. Zero add-ons
WeLaw Privacy Compliance natively covers every major privacy jurisdiction — from Latin America, Asia-Pacific, Africa, and the Middle East to GDPR, LGPD, CCPA/CPRA, APPI, PIPEDA, PIPL, POPIA, PRIVACY_ACT_AU and beyond.
Your country not listed or the law changed yesterday?
Ok. The future-proofing Custom Jurisdiction module lets you manually configure any country or region and its respective required compliance features.

Frequently Asked Questions
Data protection laws apply based not only on where your business is located, but also on where your visitors are from and the specific features of your website and business. In reality, you might only be exempt from these regulations if your website meets ALL of the following conditions simultaneously:
- No contact forms, user registrations, logins, or comment sections
- No tracking cookies, analytics tools (like Google Analytics), or third-party scripts
- No targeted ads or marketing campaigns
- No embedded third-party content (like YouTube videos, Google Maps, social media integrations, or CAPTCHA)
- No e-commerce features or payment processing
- No server logs collecting visitors’ IP addresses
For those who are not very familiar with these legal issues, a safer way to think about it is: “Does any law apply to my situation? And if so, what do I need to do?”
IMPORTANT: This material is not a substitute for legal advice. Always consult a professional for guidance.
No. A regular “Accept Cookies” banner is purely cosmetic and does not protect you legally. True compliance requires a few critical actions behind the scenes:
- Prior Consent: Blocking tracking scripts before the user clicks “Accept.”
- Granular Control: Allowing visitors to accept Analytics cookies but reject Marketing ones, for example.
- Consent Logs: Keeping a secure, encrypted record of who consented and when, as proof for authorities.
- Opt-out/Data Rights: Giving users an easy way to revoke consent or request data deletion later. WeLaw is not just a banner; it’s a complete Consent Management Platform (CMP) that handles all these complex requirements automatically.
Yes, it is truly free. Unlike most cloud-based solutions, the WeLaw Privacy Compliance Free plan has no pageview limits, no domain caps, and no expiration date. We don’t throttle your compliance features based on your traffic. Whether your site gets 10 visitors or 10 million, the free plan works exactly the same without surprise paywalls.
Yes. WeLaw natively supports over 90 jurisdictions globally, including GDPR (EU/EEA), UK GDPR, LGPD (Brazil), CCPA/CPRA (California), and major laws across Latin America, Asia-Pacific, Africa, and the Middle East. If your specific local legislation isn’t listed natively yet, no problem: our “Custom Jurisdiction” module allows you to manually configure the compliance rules and adapt the plugin to any law, anywhere in the world.
Yes, but you shouldn’t panic—you just need to automate your compliance. A common misconception is that privacy laws only target large e-commerce sites or massive corporations. However, if your “simple blog” uses Google Analytics to track visits, embedded YouTube videos, or a contact form that collects names and emails, you are processing personal data. Regulators and privacy monitoring bots sweep the web regardless of website size. Using a plugin like WeLaw ensures you are protected from automated demand letters and fines without needing an expensive legal team.
No. WeLaw is built natively for WordPress, loads its assets asynchronously, and only injects scripts on pages that actually need them. Unlike SaaS-based (cloud) solutions that force your site to make external API calls and third-party round-trips to display a banner, WeLaw runs entirely on your own server. This means zero external latency and minimal impact on your Core Web Vitals and SEO performance.
Yes. This is one of the strictest requirements of privacy laws like the GDPR and LGPD: no tracking can occur until the user explicitly agrees. WeLaw automatically intercepts and blocks common third-party scripts, iframes, and tracking pixels from loading. Once the visitor gives their consent via the banner, the plugin dynamically releases the scripts without requiring the page to reload.
Yes. WeLaw is fully prepared for a global audience. The plugin and its legal front-end notices are available in 5 major languages out-of-the-box: English, German, Spanish, French, and Portuguese. Furthermore, thanks to its geolocation features, it can identify where your visitor is coming from and automatically display the correct language and the specific legal rules required for their region.
Absolutely. We know that caching and design are vital for WordPress users. WeLaw is fully compatible with the most popular Page Builders on the market, including Elementor, Divi, Beaver Builder, and Bricks. Additionally, it was engineered to work seamlessly alongside powerful caching and optimization plugins like LiteSpeed Cache, WP Rocket, and W3 Total Cache, ensuring your banners display correctly per user without breaking your site’s cache structure.
Non-compliance carries three major risks:
- Financial Penalties: Fines can range from thousands to millions of dollars, and automated legal notices (lawsuit trolls) targeting non-compliant SMEs are becoming common.
- Platform Bans: Tech giants enforce these laws too. If your site doesn’t have a valid Consent Management setup (like Google Consent Mode v2), Google can block your Google Ads accounts and suspend your Analytics tracking.
- Loss of Trust: Modern consumers care about privacy. A site without a clear, professional privacy structure looks outdated and untrustworthy.
We have a dedicated team of legal and tech professionals along with a monitoring system in place. Whenever there are significant changes to any legislation, the plugin is updated as quickly as possible. But you are always in control: if there is an extraordinary local change or a specific company policy you need to apply immediately, it’s simple. You can use our settings to manually enable or tweak specific features for any jurisdiction ahead of time.
We are committed to helping our community! Free version users can get direct assistance through the dedicated WeLaw support forum on the official WordPress.org repository. Our team actively monitors the forum to help troubleshoot bugs, answer questions, and guide you through the setup process.
