Why TayIT Stands Out
Many cookie plugins are just “banner plugins” that rely on external SaaS services and only scan the front‑end. TayIT is built as a self‑hosted WordPress‑native gatekeeper that:
- Blocks scripts at the server level, not just hides them.
- Uses server‑side scanning to detect PHP and plugin cookies that front‑end tools miss.
- Provides a built‑in DSR portal so you can handle data access and deletion requests from within WordPress.
- Stays completely on your server — no external API calls, no monthly fees, no data sharing with third‑party consent platforms.
Key Features in All Versions
Every TayIT license includes the same core feature set, so you’re not missing critical compliance tools in a lower tier:
- Real cookie banner with accept, reject, and settings buttons.
- Server‑side cookie scanner that finds PHP and plugin cookies.
- Script blocking: Google Analytics, GA4, Google Tag Manager, Facebook Pixel, and custom scripts.
- Google Consent Mode v2 support (data redaction, URL passthrough, data layer events).
- Iframe blocking: YouTube, Google Maps, Vimeo, and other embeds replaced with placeholders.
- Geo‑awareness: GDPR (EU), CCPA (California), LGPD (Brazil) rules applied automatically.
- Accessibility-ready: WCAG 2.1 AA compliant, keyboard‑navigable, screen‑reader friendly.
- Appearance control: top/bottom, floating box, full colour and layout customisation.
- Admin Shield: blocks known admin trackers like stats.wp.com and pixel.wp.com in WP Admin.
- Cookie policy and DSR pages: auto‑generated or shortcode‑based policy and request form.
- Compliance reports and audit logs: view recent consent actions and export full history as CSV.
- Shortcodes: `[tayit_cookie_list]`, `[tayit_cookie_preferences]`, `[tayit_gdpr_request_form]`.
How TayIT Compares to Other Plugins
| Feature | TayIT GDPR | Typical Alternatives |
|---|---|---|
| GDPR / CCPA / LGPD support | ✅ Yes | ✅ Yes |
| Server‑side cookie scanner | ✅ Yes – finds PHP, plugin, and 3rd‑party cookies | ❌ Only client‑side (misses PHP cookies) |
| Google Consent Mode v2 | ✅ Full support with data redaction + URL passthrough | ✅ Partial / basic |
| Admin dashboard tracking protection | ✅ Admin Shield blocks stats.wp.com, pixel.wp.com, etc. | ❌ No protection |
| Self‑hosted, no SaaS dependency | ✅ 100% self‑hosted, no external API calls | ❌ Cloud‑based, external servers, or SaaS dependencies |
| IAB TCF v2.2 support | ❌ No (focused on Google Consent Mode v2 for business sites) | ✅ Yes (for AdSense / programmatic publishers) |
| Cookie policy & DSR page | ✅ Auto‑generated policy + DSR form | ✅ Varies (policy auto‑generated, DSR basic or missing) |
| Audit logs & proof of consent | ✅ Server‑side logs + CSV export for legal proof | ✅ Often PRO/SaaS only |
| Data Subject Request (DSR) portal | ✅ Built‑in form, verification, and admin management | ❌ Often missing or requires a separate platform |
| No monthly fees | ✅ One‑time purchase, no recurring charges | ❌ Monthly subscription, often traffic‑based |
Legal note: simple “notice only” cookie banners that do not actually block non‑essential cookies or log consent may fall short of GDPR, CCPA, and LGPD expectations. Regulators increasingly look for prior blocking, clear choices, and evidence of consent. TayIT is designed to provide those technical controls in a self‑hosted way, but it does not replace your responsibility to maintain accurate policies and review your setup with a qualified professional where needed.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why is TayIT a one‑time purchase, not a subscription?
Unlike cloud‑based consent tools that charge per site or per pageview, TayIT is a self‑hosted WordPress plugin. You buy it once and run it on your server, with no external data sharing, no monthly bills, and no traffic limits.
What does “1 year of updates and support” mean?
For 1 year after purchase, you receive plugin updates (new features, security fixes, compliance changes) and priority support. After that, the plugin continues to work, and renewal is optional.
