    Hello I am using your plugin and I have enable refusing cookies. I would like to know if the user doesn’t push the button yes will the plugin tracking-enable the cookies automatic? Also, if he push NO, will the plugin disable all cookies automatically?? Waiting for your answer. Thank you

    Generally, all the scripts that you manually place in the plugin settings will only be run after acceptance. If a user clicks “no”, or does not click anything in the cookie notice at all, then these scripts are never run. So then there’s nothing to disable – the scripts would never have run for that user in the first place and cookies are never placed.

    Any scripts or cookies that are hard-coded in the theme do always run, regardless of the cookie notice. You can use that for scripts and cookies that are allowed to be placed without consent (necessary cookies and anonimized analytics cookies).

    There is an option in the plugin settings that causes cookies to be automatically accepted when a user scrolls the page. This does not comply with the new GDPR privacy law though, so I would not recommend this if you serve EU visitors. For EU visitors there is no way to get marketing scripts / cookies placed without acceptance by the user.
