Documentation

Get started with Samtykkr

Samtykkr is built so a non-expert can install it and be compliant without understanding GDPR. The defaults are already correct under the Electronic Communications Act section 3-15. Here is everything you need.

Installation

  1. 1Install Samtykkr from WordPress.org, or upload the plugin under Plugins, Add New.
  2. 2Activate the plugin.
  3. 3Go to Settings, Samtykkr, and complete the four-step wizard: language, services, appearance, preview.
  4. 4Activate. The banner now shows for visitors, with law-correct defaults already in place.

How it works

Samtykkr blocks all non-essential scripts and cookies until the visitor has consented. It does this in two layers:

  • Native gating: scripts you add yourself are marked with a data attribute and activated without a page reload once the category is granted.
  • Automatic blocking: scripts and iframes from known tracking services are neutralised before they run, based on a curated list, and restored on consent.

Google Consent Mode v2 is set to denied for everything except the necessary, and updated to granted when the visitor consents. We run Basic mode, so no data is sent to Google before consent.

Each choice is stored in a data-minimised consent log in your own WordPress database, as proof. Raw IP is never stored. The data never leaves your server.

Configuration

Everything is controlled from Settings, Samtykkr:

  • Wizard: choose language (bokmaal or nynorsk, with an English fallback), which services the site uses, and appearance. Accept and Reject are always the same size; that cannot be changed.
  • Custom banner text: override the intro with your own wording, for example if you do not track at all.
  • Owner information: name, address, company number and contact, shown in the cookie declaration.
  • Duration: how long a consent lasts before it is asked again (default 180 days).

Cookie declaration

Place the auto-generated, layered cookie declaration on a page with the shortcode [samtykkr_erklaering], or use the Samtykkr cookie declaration block in the block editor.

The declaration is generated from the services you have enabled and updates itself. It contains owner and contact details, what a cookie is, how long they are stored, how to reject or delete them, and how to change consent. A permanent Manage cookies button is always available in the lower left.

Pro

Samtykkr Pro installs alongside the free plugin and adds:

  • Scanner that reviews your pages and suggests tracker categorisation.
  • Automatic updates of the curated tracker database.
  • Audit report for documentation.
  • White-label: remove or rebrand the mark.
  • Multi-site and consolidated billing for agencies.

Only aggregate consent counts are sent to the cloud. Individual consent records never leave the site. pricing get in touch.
