GDPR Compliance

The nice thing about Donation Platform for WooCommerce is that it does not process any additional data not already processed by WooCommerce. It will never send any personal information to a third party server. It also only processes data required for generating leaderboards. The following two features require some processing of Personally Identifiable Information (PII):

However, please note that WooCommerce and other extensions do process personal data and therefore may require customization. More information on how to make WooCommerce GDPR ready can be found here: https://woocommerce.com/gdpr/

Please make sure to clear the cache via the plugin settings whenever you made manual changes to orders/users and want to ensure that the leaderboard is updated immediately.
